An added shock absorber kit is not something that is necessary with the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade - Tandem Axle # LC1565391.

The Center Point # LC1565391 is going to give your 5th wheel a huge upgrade in its suspension without the use of a shock kit. The air bags of the Center Point will act as shock absorbers, and ensure the best overall stability because they replace your equalizers.

The air bags are attached to the equalizers and the fact they are at the center of your suspension gives them the ability to counteract bounce, hop, and movement better than any other suspension upgrade. So for a much more comfortable ride you don't have to add any other parts, you can just go with the Center Point # LC1565391.
