Expert Reply:

While the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV are primarily designed to assist the leaf springs on the trailers and smoothen out the road shock being transferred from the wheels to the trailer it will only have a minimal impact on jerking and chucking.

The best way to help with chucking and jerking is with a Cushioned Hitch # SHK29VR or Pin Box # MR94VR depending on your application. If you can tell me what trailer you have along with the truck and method of towing you are currently using I can help you with more application specific options to help you get a less stressful ride.

I have a 2015 Chevy 2500 short bed Duramax diesel, I have a fifth wheel hitch and air bags on my truck, the RV is a Genesis toy hauler and it 34 foot long, it came with a curt roto flex pin box, I am thing the best rout is to go with a shock kit for the RV? Thanks let me know what you think.

@NormanD With everything you already have your best option to improve your ride quality is going to be a system like the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers # RM-2460-2570. I would need to know what capacity axles you have under your Genesis toy hauler to verify the correct kit.

@NormanD The Roadmaster kits will require some drilling to attach the equalizer replacement sections but they are mostly bolt on. What weight capacity are your 3" axles to make sure you get the correct kit?
