Considering upgrading from my 2002 31' Fleetwood Fiesta to a 2007 Hurricane (Thor/Four Winds) 34B. Hoping for a smoother more stable ride. I've owned the Fleetwood for 2 years have added stronger control arms, Davis stabilizers, Safety Plus steering stabilizer, new Bilstein shocks, new tires, etc.. The ride is heads and tails better than it was but. The coach is stable but the ride remains stiff/rough on the poor CA highways. Looking for a softer smoother ride without sacrificing any stability.
Not sure if you're going from Ford to Ford or WH to Ford, but either way, you're talking a straight I beam axle on leaf springs, so....
I'd say that you should be looking for the least amount of overhang behind the wheels for handling and tire pressure can only be determined with a weigh in. I never bother with four corners and just go with the axles and then add about 10-15psi for a cushion and for taking care of all the variables.
