Truck Camper
I'm new to the forum starting today. My situation is similar to VAredRAM's except that I have an '09 Ram 3500HD 4WD SRW pickup. I made an assumption that I'd be able to carry the AF990 w/o any issues...

First thing to check is that there are separate filler lines for the two airbags and not a T connection. If they are using the same filler then when you put pressure on one bag in a turn it will push air into the bag on the other side.
With more load support you also need more in the way of shock dampening which is the primary function of what we in the USA refer to as shock absorbers. Rancho 9000 or Bilstein 5100 shocks are designed for a camper type of application.
Without the horse trailer component it would be better to use SuperSprings but they will not enable precise adjustment of the height of the camper to match that needed for the trailer. You would need to do that with a drop hitch if that will work with your trailer.
Search for posts regarding air bags as they do require some fine tuning to work properly.
