I got moved half a lane getting hit by what where known 60-100 mph gusts on I205 crossing the Columbia river one time. Whole truck and trailer moved as a unit. While I'm not going to say my shorts didn't need changing. I don't consider that type of movement anything a Hensley or equal can help with.
If the trailer is moving left to right behind you on its own at speed above XX mph, that is when the cat is playing in those balls Don posted a picture of. I can say you have problems with the setup.
As noted by some others, what movements did you have? Some frankly are what many of us would call normal movements. Kinda like a plane in some wind conditions.....bouncy!

I agree 100% my Excursion and TT moved as one when hit by wind of a passing semi. Side wind gusts barely affected me. Now with the MH. I got shoved over almost an entire lane last year by a small gust, less than 50 mph. But it was definitely a wake up moment. In the 17 years I had my TT I have never had that type of movement.
