JimNY did you mount the bags on the leaf springs, under the truck frame or inside the frame on top of the axles?
On top inside will always cause huge sway issues with TC's, not really an issue towing.
You had issues other than just the bags...
My TC was 1,800 lbs dry, and still sagged on a 3/4 ton truck. Bags were wonderful.
I used Firestone on two trucks, but really would like to try the less expensive red ones that are generic to see how well they do for limited part-time use. there really is nothing magical about having a special kit except it is easier and requires no fab on my end...
