What have you done to improve the ride and driveability?

[1990HR]

I have adjustable airbags in the front coils and a "Steer Safe Stabilizer" and a stock steering dampener.
All was there when I bought it.
The motorhome does not handle well going down the road, wanders and front bounce, and I will go through and replace ball joints, shocks, bushings and so on to clean it up, depends what I find wore out.
I'm wondering what aftermarket suspension products you all had the best luck with?

One of the biggest issues with these was the idler arm pivots. They got worn and are no longer serviceability. I bought a "new" one for mine and less than 1,000 miles later it is loose at the bottom! There is a ball bearing replacement that is quite pricey but well worth the money if you are planning on doing a lot of driving. The idlers are adjustable for end play and sometimes this is all that is needed but if it still moves side to side after the end play is set then it is toast.

New shocks, and not too much or too little air in those front air bags will really help with eliminating that "bounce"...which can also happen if the rear shocks are shot, which transfers the bounce to the front end.  We have put a LOT of miles on our HR, and with each thing we did, we improved the ride little by little.  Depending on how heavy you load up your rig, you might have to have a shop raise your rear ride height position to its highest position so that you are riding level, and new shear springs, if yours are bad, might be in order.  Wander is usually attributed to bad front end alignment.  As far as front end wear of parts, we have around 140K on ours, and all the front end parts are still within wear specs.  Just keeping them greased is usually all it takes to keep them long lived...the P30 chassis is extremely well engineered.

I have the same parts on my front end. I run 70 psi in both the front and rear airbags, as well as all my tires (I like to keep the #'s simple, easier to remember!) Keep it greased well, and have a good alignment done. Your always going to have to work the steering wheel 'some' in these P30 motorhomes, I don't care who you are. There big bricks going down the road. But you shouldn't feel "tired" after driving them. If you do, you still need to investigate....

Go with a 1 3/8" front sway bar upgrade.  Most bang for the buck on my rig but it is quite a bit smaller than yours.

Don't skimp on the front shocks.  Bilstein!
