Increasing the air bag pressure and lifting the truck off the overloads will increase sway, not decrease it. You need to decrease the air bag pressure and keep the truck firmly planted on the overloads. If it's too low in the back at that point, add another leaf to the overloads.
I first drove it with minimum air in the airlift bags; on the overload springs and I don't think that I was too low in the back but had a lot more sway side to side then where I started. (has a bigwig sway bar)
I'm still on the overload springs with 30 psi in the bags but not sure how much pressure is on them. I guess better but not what I was hoping for.
Its my first truck camper and maybe I just need to get used to the "sway".
Or add another spring to the back. :@
Only you know how much sway is comfortable. You may also be experiencing tire squish...are you at full pressure on your rear tires? What brand and weight rating? I know my biggest help with sway after my stableloads...was my tires.
running 65 PSI in front and 80 PSI in the rear. Just upgraded to the OEM alloy wheels and Michelin tires with 3640 lb ratings
i'm new to TCs so "how much" sway is acceptable doesn't have a baseline for me.
anyone in Louisville, KY area that could help out with some "live " feedback :)
