Jerky bounce over bumps, 2005 F350 diesel

Hi All, I have a 2005 F350 extended cab diesel towing a 12k+ 38' 5th wheel ball style Cougar 330RBK. When going over bumps the truck has like a jerky bounce. Just put new Sailun tires on which did help but I am not sure if the issue is on the truck side or caused by the trailer. Being an extended cab I am thinking it's the front end bouncing but obviously can't try to watch and drive at the same time. It can't be good for the truck or hitch.

Any ideas what might help take care of it?

It could be the hitch.
What is make and model of the 5th wheel receiver?
Does the 5r have a standard fixed pin box?
