Yeah, get thee to scale so you know what you have. As ktmrfs said, shocks will help. WDH adjustment may help, too.
The bad news is that there are certain sections of concrete roadway that have cupped at certain intervals in sections. These set off a harmonic imbalance between truck and towed trailer.
Changing speed to get out of the intervals helps but there may just be a lot of pitching no matter what you try because your combination enters these bad sections at typical speed. Try increasing/decreasing your speed 5 mph the next time you haul through the bad road.
Known "porpoise pen"------I94 South, a few miles from St. Joseph/Collegeville, MN. I think they may have repaved some of this. I haven't been through it with trailer for awhile.
