IMO the front tires also play a role in sway. I run 4 'E' tires at full (max) pressure to minimize sway.
You do realize that at 80 psi the "E" rated tires on your 1500 are well over inflated! Minimum max load on a 16" "E" rated tire is about 3,000# so you have about 12,000# of capacity carrying about 7,000# of load. Over inflation reduces the tires contact patch reducing traction for braking and handling, not to mention greatly reduced wet traction!
