I tow a 12' cargo trailer thats gets pretty heavy. When I first got it, I had serious porpoising and sag. So I upgraded the shocks, and upgraded the coils to TTC-1210s. I still get some sag, so I was at first thinking I should upgrade the coils again to TTC1211s. But then I ran across the Airlift 60818s, now I have questions.
The truck has a 2.5" level. Will the airbags affect the setup unloaded?
Is the airbag a better option than upgrading the coils again?
Thanks
Sounds like improper load, to me
Heavy
12 ft trailer?
Make sure the total trailer weight is properly distributed.
weigh the loaded trailer, then weigh tongue weight.
if the tongue weight is below 7% or over 15% of total trailer weight, then move trailers axle to compensate, in order to obtain desired tongue weight.
Think about it, guys are towing 30ft travel trailers with these trucks.
how in the world does a tiny 12ft trailer cause issues?
Unless all the trailers weight is tongue weight and maxing out payload.
regarding the 1210. I can see why oen would only look for 25% more load bearing,
with the trailer being a tiny little 12 footer.
Yet, if OEM is not enough, why not get most bang for buck?
I think the 1223V or 1211 would have been better choice vs 1210.
If stock springs are not enough, then get best replacements springs available.
Once best springs are installed, and If more is needed, then and only then, consider air bags.
But,a gain, I am thinking the trailer itself, specifically percentage of total trailer weight compared to trailer tongue weight, is your issue.
Too much trailer tongue weight is a TOP cause of porpoising.
