Favorite Truck Camper(s): elkhorne
Type and Brand of Truck(s) Owned: dodge3500 double cab drw cummins
Type of Tiedowns used: I Don't know what make they are
Truck and Camper Setup: Elkhorn on a dodge ram



I have a heavy camper on my dodge 3500 dually,
I have too much body roll, but the unit rides flat, what I need is the best method to stop this roll, bearing in mind that I use the truck a lot solo and it already rides hard.
I am thinking of heavy shocks, coilovers or air bags can anyone tell me which is best, or suggest alternatives??

I have the Ram 2500 4wd longbed. I added Firestone airbags. Pumped up to 80lbs they help keep the swaying in check. At 60lbs, ride is nicer, but mountain roads are scary. I just bought Rancho9000XL rear shocks. They have a 9 position knob on the shock that can dial in how stiff you want them to be. They ran about $170 on Amazon.com.
Good Luck,
Dave
