Redd; I have a 2k F350 srw and tow a '92 32' fifth wheel. I encountered the same trouble you are experiencing. I rolled the axles under the springs and installed new spring saddles to keep the arch in the axle up. Tows much better now that the trailer suspension is better balanced, dispite the higher center of gravity. It can always be changed back if needed. If you still need more, this change allows for the use of a taller tire on the trailer. Pretty simple, straight forward job. The Chevys are a bit lower than the Fords but the goat trucks are higher again. Good luck Roy
