How much do bags help with sway?
New to this forum, and looking for some help. I purchased a 10.0 Camp Lite TC for my 07 3500 Cummins. The truck is lifted 6" so I am dealing with some sag and sway going down the road, and this is ...

Yes I realize ditching the lift would be the best option, but that ain't gonna happen.
Tires are 37x13.5x20, E rated The bigger wheel diameter sucks up some of the sidewall flex. I already have dual Bilstein 5100s in each corner in the rear and triple 5100s in the front.
As for having individual lines for each bag, I would plan on doing that. In fact, I don't see why anyone would want to tie them together, kind of defeats the purpose of adjustability. Even if I were to use my on-board air from the Pac Brake, I'd plumb in some sort of splitter valve to isolate the individual bags.
As stated, there just isn't a way to get around the increased COG with a lift and truck camper. That's one reason I went with this make/model of camper. It dry-weighs in at 2100lb, which I feel is fairly light for a 10' camper. Looks like my best bet will be to get bags and eventually StableLoads and be very careful.
Mods, if you think this thread belongs in the TC section, by all means, move it there.
