Timbrens or Firestone WorkRites are airless bags. Let's take this one step at time and get you feeling comfortable with your new setup. I don't advice throwing a bunch of parts and money at a problem all at once and then not knowing what fixed it.
I'm not sure about the rating on the Roadmaster springs or if they have adjustability. Can you preload them more so they engage sooner? The lower StableLoads will help with stability as well as sag. Let's get you sitting a little more square and then see if the sway goes away or if you need the anti-sway bar.
I use the taller upper StableLoad pads and the lower StableLoad wedges for my heavier TC. I only use my air bags for my heavy tongue weight when towing. I'm sure we can get you going without the use of bags, but you will lose the ability to adjust based on weight.
Thanks, this is the information I'm looking for. I don't want to just throw parts at it.
I can adjust those Roadmaster springs, and did adjust them for the max preload that they recommend. It actually raised the stance of my truck about 1" in the rear unloaded . I'm ok with that.
For the record, my TC is on the lighter side as there are no slide outs or anything crazy. The sticker shows something like 2300# with both propane tanks full and the 25 gal water tank full. Not sure if that includes the weight of the a/c though.
