Front suspension woes

On my 04 HR Admiral w/43K miles I'm experiencing suspension issues. The coach drives straight and true on flat smooth hwy but I'm experiencing what I'd call popping or bumping when I drive on roads where the coach sways left and right and also on sharper turns where the coach has that natural lean. I greased all fittings back at the beginning of spring and it seems like it started after that. I know the suspension setup is not that complicated but I just thought someone may have had a similar experience and might be able to chime in.
Thx

Our first MH was an '01 HR Admiral on a W22 chassis and we would hear a spring slap only on left turns. Try some grease between the leaf springs on the front ends.

We did receive a kit from Workhorse back then to install plastic shims between the leaf springs but never did get it installed before selling, after 10 years.

I did forget to mention I'm running on a Ford chassis.
