Different Hitch ??

Friends,
I am pulling a 15,000# Mobile Suite with a new Ram3500 and in the past I used a 16,000#Reese hitch for 9 years. Only been on short trips in these years but about to go full time in the West. Going to put new rails in the truck now. Is it really worth the money to change to these new air type or other soft ride hitches I see on the market??

I don't think I have ever seen a Mobile Suite that weighed as little as 15K#. I think you also need a larger hitch.

I am not pulling that heavy (closer to 12,500), but I put a 5th Airborne pin box on mine. Really softens the ride for both the truck and the 5er. Worth the money to me. Considerably less expensive that an air ride hitch.
