We had no idea what chucking was until we bought our Cyclone 3800. Our tow vehicle is an 2011 F-450 w/Companion hitch. I decided to go with a 5th Airborne kingpin. The air ride helped but did not did not cure the chucking. I installed airbags on the TV and finally got rid of most of the chucking. I never thought I would forget I was towing 18K but this combination has made it a lot more comfortable to drive :D
What is your pin weight percentage? I have had several friends when new to towing 5th wheels complain about chucking. In every case they were in the 15% or less range. When they increased it to 25% their chucking went away. Towing level is also required to prevent chucking.
