New Air Bags & Sway Control = ROUGH ride
I just added some air bags to my aging F150 and was wondering what the differences will be to my ride as I change air pressure? This year I also went from "D" to "E" rated tires on the truck and ...

That little snippet of wisdom didn't prevent you from buying that bigger trailer now, did it?
That's funny... but true! But I love the bigger trailer. I think goducks might be on the right track... some trailers are just built differently and don't tow as well.
We made the trip back from ND to NV last week and all was well. Different roads and guess what? Much less bounce.
I've thought about it and I think I'll move up to 1000 or 1200lb spring bars. I currently have the same ones from my last set up which was a couple of hundred pounds less TW. The 800lb bars I'm using definitely flex and that of course could be some of the bounce.
Other than that everything is great. Following most of the advice I lowered the air pressure as I mentioned to about 25-30 in the bags (before hooking up) and took out a little in the truck tires and if the road is good the ride is good, so I think the setup is pretty sound.
