Have a 96 Winnebago 36ft. Adventurer, 8 wheeler (two in front)(six in back)(4 duel drivers)(2 drag wheels. Too much Sway and seems unstable on curves, almost lost control in a heavy desert wind storm in New Mexico. Getting ready for another long trip in a few months. Front springs have only two leaves. All rears are air suspension. There are no detectable leaks. Is their an adjustment to the air pressure to the bags, also should I have another leaf added to the fronts. Please help, Any advice will be appreciated

I know nothing about a Winnabago but I bet new shock absorbers would make a world of difference.

Well nothing is going to help out in the desert when you have high winds, you know those areas where they warn the trucks they could blow over. Slow down or don't travel during high winds.
The tag axel is usually a fairly stable setup. Check your shocks check your suspension bushings for play. Air pressure in your tiers. You could add air bags to the front to help. larger sway bar and a panhard bar to locate the rear axel. But really not enough info to be definitive. Make shore your tag axels are working properly.
