I have a E150 with a raised roof and it seems to have made it a little top heavy. When we try and make a quick lane change or an evasive maneuver it feels like the beast is going to roll over. The shocks have plenty of spring in them, but they are not as stout as Bilsteins. Will beefing up the front end with a stiffer stabilizer bar solve this problem. I don't care if it rides like a light tuner car as long as the handling safety is up to par. It has the factory original sized tires. This is a 1995 E150 with 351. The rear end bottoms out a bit too.
Thanks

You could try putting in stiffer stabilzer bars, but I would look at the stabilzer bar bushings where the bars actually go into the control arms. even new, theres alot of play in them. Check to see if theres any tighter options for those. Make sure tire pressure is correct and most importantly, change your driving habits to accomodate a modified vehicle.
