Sliding-into-ho

Sway bar arrives on Monday. Pretty sure I'm going to cut these stable loads down quite a bit. I suspect they're contributing to a fairly annoying front-to-back axle hop (porpoising?). IF I have any sag with the stock suspension (and I'm not sure I will) I'll just add rancho adjustables and call it a day.
I'll be able to confirm after I cut down the stableloads, but I suspect most of you guys/gals are getting far more engagement from them, so there's less of a rebound effect. In other words, they're always at least partially engaging the overloads with heavier campers whereas my combo is light enough for my suspension that it's only engaging the upper overloads when the suspension periodically compresses due to bumps or cornering. Not a suspension expert, but that would seem to explain both the side-to-side bounce and the porpoising bounce. I'll be first in line to eat my words if I'm wrong about this, and I'll definitely let you all know.
In other news, I just got the Nokian LT2s put on, and they are GREAT. No joke, I cannot even hear the studs above 10mph.
