To get back to the original issue, does the trailer and truck feel like they are rising and falling together. I would describe porpoising as a rocking motion and not the issue at hand. My combo appears to rise and fall together and not have a rocking motion on the type of roads mentioned previously.
I noticed that the issue actually got worse after adding shocks to the trailer. All other handling improved with shocks. I suspect that the shocks are not allowing the springs flex as much. A trailer with longer, weaker springs might not transfer as much energy to the truck.
Thanks for taking the time to respond...I will have to pay attention during the next tow to the motion to better describe it....there cerrtainly is some porpoising (rocking motion), however the most uncomfortable seeems to be abrupt raises and falls in the TV/TT combination.
That is interesting that the shocks made that one issue worse...I have seriously been considering shocks on the TT also...
