Just curious, did your chassis come with a rear anti-sway bar?
I'm asking because you mention the Sumo springs having constant contact with the rear axle and resisting sway. It seems that if they do this by adding stiffness to whatever side wants to sway, they also add stiffness when the chassis hits a bump traveling in a straight line and would make the ride stiffer. An anti sway bar has no effect in a straight line, but only comes into effect when the chassis sways. The rear anti sway bar on my Trek is gigantic - probably 2 or more inches in diameter.

It design is to take up the gap between frame and axle reducing sway. I haven't tested it yet as RV is in for oil change. I'm optimistic but I am ready to build a trac bar to complete the handling performance upgrades.
I will circle back and give my evaluation of the Sumo Springs for my P32 chassis.
