Hellwig Rear Swaybar - E450
Hey Gang, I'm considering installing the Hellwig 7180 on my 2013 E450. The rig is 32'5" in total length. The mod is cheap by RV standards, but I'm wondering if I'd get any real bang for the buc...

Ron,
The touching problem can arise as, or if, owners reduce tire pressures to improve the ride and/or handling. Thus it would be highly variable as to when it will happen. It will depend upon the motorhome's weight on the dual tires, versus the pressure being used, versus the actual spacing between the tires (which is controlled by rim geometry and tire body width).
I went conservative because of our sometimes hot weather travel combined with off-pavement travel. This requires 80 lbs. pressure in the rear tires in addition to slightly narrower tires.
