RE: Front Shocks for a 2000 LXI
Hi Larry,

Welcome to the forum. Go over here and enter sway bar into the google search bar. A bunch of threads will come up regarding how to improve the ride quality.

When I bought my LXi in 2004 I wasn't at all happy with the ride. Soon after buying my coach I bumped into a Prevost H3-45 owner at a Prevost Service Center. He just sold his LXi after owning it for only a couple of weeks because he was disappointed in the ride. I could have saved him thousands of dollars by telling him to uncouple the anti-sway bar and give it another try.

You can also make incremental but noticeable improvements by carefully adjusting tire air pressures and switching to Koni adjustable shocks. I found that the Koni's worked best when adjusted one turn from full soft. If you make them too firm then the suspension doesn't have time to unload between bumps and the ride stiffens up.

Good luck and please keep asking questions.
