Another question for the experts here. Lets assume I need as much sag in my truck to level the trailer but I want to try airbags to improve the ride. It seems that I would NOT be able to add enough air to improve the ride without raising the rear. Does anybody have experiance with this same scenario?

It is just painfully rough going down the road. Here are my stats
2015 chevy 2500 Duramax crewcab standard bed ( weighs 8,000lbs at cat scale)
2015 Glacier Peak ( weighs in 10,800lbs at cat scale)
Pin weight 2,200lbs at cat scale 20.3%
Drive axle 5360 lbs
Steer adel 4840 lbs
Truck tires at 80 psi
Trailer tires at 80psi
Bilstein 5100's
"Stable load" spring enhancement kit
B&W Patriot hitch
Standard Lippert extended pin box
Should I try to take some weight off the pin? Should I drop tire pressure ? Not sure where to start? I feel the weight of trailer lunging and pulling the truck pretty bad.

Don't worry about level so much. All these new trucks are way to high.
Maybe not for the TV, but I still have about 2" to get to level. Having the trailer level is very important! a nose high trailer will not tow as smooth as one that is level.

Describe the rough ride. Is it up and down, back and forth? :h
I run 80 psi in the rears of the TV and 80 on the fifth wheel that weighs around 10K. No problem.
