Have you checked your light/heavy height measurement on your truck? One other side would be are you towing on P'Metric tires? If so a change over to a LT Tire would help-you firm up your tow vehicle.

If the front is high with the trailer attaached, you might not have enough tension on the hitch bars and this will affect handling.
As to tires, anything you can do to stiffen them will help, I do insist on only towing with a 3/4 ton for just that reason, stiffer tires, stiffer suspension, bigger brakes...
