Do you have the problem all the time? I had a rear bath 5th wheel that would tow OK when I was ready to go. It had the waste tanks behind the axles and the fresh tank in front. After dry camping for several days I would have a near empty fresh tank and the waste tanks near full. In that condition I would be tail heavy and the trailer was a bear to tow until I could find a dump station. The EZ-Flex is a great sytem do not get me wrong. My current Cruiser has the Equa-Flex and I would not have another trailer with out a similiar system. Also noted you are towing with a 1/2 ton. You may need to stiffen the rear suspension and install heavy duty shocks.
RCMAN46,
Neither of the reasons you suggest for my problem are true. First, my trailer tongue is slightly down from level. And my tongue weight is 980# with a trailer weight 6800#, about 14%. But thanks for the suggestions.
