Question:
Hello. So i am having some issues with bounce and porpoising when pulling my travel trailer. I have a 2018 Ford F-150 and do have a weight distribution system with sway control too. Can you recommend a suspension system that will help with this along with the WD system i have?

Expert Reply:
I have a great solution to the porpoising and bounce you are experiencing when towing with your 2018 Ford F-150. I recommend taking a look at the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS3611-Y if you have a 4WD or # RAS3611-B if you have the 2WD model.
This will essentially convert your truck's leaf springs into a mechanically active suspension system. It will drastically improve the stability and control of your ride as well as eliminate that porpoising when towing. Another great feature of this system is that after the initial installation it won't require any further adjustments or maintenance. They will simply secure under the factory leaf springs and around the factory U-bolts for an easy no-drill installation.
I have attached a short video demonstration that you can also check out.
