Default reduce swaying



We just purchased a 2002 Rialta about a month ago and have some questions about how to reduce the swaying when hitting road rutts. Is there a sway bar we could install or somehow beef up the shocks or suspension? Any suggestions?

are your rear air springs inflated ?


are your shocks absorbers dead ?


because normaly the Rilata handles quite good for an RV …..


And it has an anti sway bar system already ,



are your tires inflated to the good pressure ?



The other day , I told my wife how much I apreciate the road handling of the rialta compare to the class C we had before

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do about the swaying on rutted roads. It happens because the rear tires are set farther apart than the front ones. The front and rear are "fighting" to get to the center of the rut. If it's too bad, you can try moving off to the side of the lane and/or slow down like I do.
