cant you just upgrade to stiffer springs
Trailer weight distribution hitch is all you need to eliminate squat. Also feels alot safer when towing, makes the trailer and truck "one" feels way better going over any bumps

Yea enclosed is what I ment. I used it on my 20' supercoach. After towing with the dist hitch you won't want to tow w/o it. plus my truck is leveled so it got rid of that little bit of squat that I had.

im sorry when i see "little" rigs pulling even flat towing stuff.

its not the pulling im worried about.
its the oh snap mommy in the mini van just pulled out in front of me and i cant stop hahaa.

pulling isnt the issue. its stopping hahaa.

the dent in the pass side rocker has since been fixed.

Do you ever have any problems towing while having your skinnies on?
