Just to give a quick update to everyone. 2 weeks ago we made our first long trip, 350 miles to Hatfield McCoy Trails. Worst ride of my life! The rig was all over the road. I couldn't keep the sway down for the life of me! It was worse in traffic. Even when getting passed by smaller vehicles they would push me all over the road! On the ride home I stopped and made another minor adjustment to the hitch with little or no difference.
I pulled the trigger and replaced the new Cooper AT3's with a set of Firestone Destination AT's. Same size and load range. Took a short test drive last night up on the highway with the Raptor and wow! what huge difference! Next weekend we are going on a 150 mile trip. Can't wait to give her a good test. I did also order the gear box brace. I still have a very small wander while driving both hooked and unhooked. I figure for $120 it can't hurt?
