I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted part # F2582 for the 2020 Ford F-150 towing the travel trailer with 1,200 lb tongue weight. The Firestone Helper Springs are rated for 4,800 lbs and will help to reduce the rear sag on the truck with their 5 PSI to 100 PSI adjustability. The bags are designed with a strong 4 layer construction to avoid being punctured compared to other brands that are 2 layers of rubber. They also have a rolled crimp seal that keeps the bags anchored instead of a metal band.

I recommend to add the Air Command F3 Compressor System part # F2581 so you can inflate/deflate the bags easily instead of stopping at a gas station for air. This particular system comes with a wireless remote so you can inflate/deflate the bags from inside or outside the cab. The system is also dual path so you can level out the truck bed side to side if you need to.
