Update,
I loaded the trailer and made sure I was level. I still have chucking not as bad but enough that the wife does not like it.
I don't have the money to spend for a Trailer Saver right now, so I'm looking at changing the Pin box and maybe shocks for the trailer.
Has anyone used a Flex Trail Air pin box or a Morryde with a Curt Hitch?
I also have a new rig similar to yours and I've been fighting a severe chucking and jerking over bumps and dips in the road. I use a Andersen Ultimate hitch but I don't think the problem is caused by the hitch anyway. I tried adding pin weight, Bilstein shocks on my truck, leveling the trailer, etc. As a last resort, 3 weeks ago I bought a MORryde pinbox. This pinbox made a huge difference. It doesn't cure the chucking, but dampens it so well that I could drive all day without getting beat up and stressed out. I highly recommend it and would never own another 5th wheel without a MORryde or equivalent shock absorbing pinbox. I got a great deal from Tweety's for $485 including shipping.
