I have found the most common reason for chucking is low pin weight percentage.
I wish that were true for us. We run at right around 23% and had horrible chucking.
What did you do to correct the chucking?
I would be interested to see the CAT scale weights for your setup.
Changed from a Trailair to a Triglide in 2013. Took about 85% of the chucking out.
My weights
Those two hitches just mask the issue they DON"T FIX IT!
Look for the root cause.
Low pin weight.
Very Good shocks on the TV
5er towing level
Shocks on all 5er axles

Do you have a chucking problem without the Swivelwheel 58DW attached?
If you do I would be looking at the trailer axles and make sure they are tracking.
Recently I saw a 5th wheel toy hauler that was tracking to one side by more than a wheel width. As I watched the trailer every 500-1000 feet the trailer would jump over in line with the TV. I suspect the driver of that setup had his hands full keeping everything straight down the road.
