Hey Shawn!
Are you looking for something to smooth it out more on the coupler side, or more on the suspension side of things?
It sounds like you're using a weight distribution system. What system is that?
We definitely have a variety of options to help improve your towing performance, like the Lippert Bolt-On Shock Kit # LC281255 or the Shocker Air Equalizer for Weight Distribution Hitch # SHK77YR that you were looking at.
Where are you looking to see some improvement in your towing rig?

I use the equalizer system. I feel like the hitch part of it is not as helpful as it was when we bought it. I did change tow vehicle. I had dodge 3500 and now ford f250. I have hitch adapter and still has some space in hitch so I’m going to have neighbor cut some metal to fill the gap. The trailer and truck seem to bounce up and down more than I remember with previous truck. The hitch looks as though it is “loose” but could be my imagination. Any ideas how to help with vertical movement on truck and or trailer. Thank you!
