Question, would a well balanced rv/truck with airbags and upgraded shocks cure the bounce and sway or would I have to get a wd hitch.
No. Airbags and hitches serve different purposes. A WD hitch is to distribute tongue weight which in turn will give better control, less sag and usually less bounce. Bags will just level the rear and may reduce a bit of bounce but do nothing else. Only the hitch will reduce or control sway. Having "a little sway" is like being "a little pregnant". Neither is good unless you wanted it, and sway, you don't.
You should start with a proper hitch with built in sway for that length and tongue weight. A properly loaded tt with a correctly adjusted hitch should eliminate your problems. Make sure your tires are aired up and your shocks are not worn out as well.
