Probably because many of us has had chucking issues and what we found was just the opposite of some of durbs opinions that say it won't work.
For example is I found air bags eliminated my chucking issues with a certain combo but I've been around towing trailers since '58 and I have enough experience to know air bags may not work in all chucking problems.
Durb does have some good pointers and reasons a certain combo can have chucking issues but to say this or that will or won't stop chucking isn't true for all combos.
Good point about air bags. Chucking and bouncing are timed events, the kingpin is pushing forward and down at the same time. If air bags made the connection between the hitch and the ground so stiff that it stopped the trailer from rotating then it would stop chucking.
