Weird problem, trailer sway and possible 5th wheel issue?

He dropped the trailer, that’s why the bags are deflated.

 

I see that, but I just wonder if it may be the air ride. To be honest, I never liked air ride trailers, and an air ride tanker may be kind of tippy.

 

those rusty things dont matter, just replace them with a solid bar, the bar will bend to the correct length, then those bag things dont matter ant more.It will make it handl like a gocart.

 

Just take a soup can, and slidit over the BIG PIN to take up the ovelness of da hole.Treat it like a sheep.

 

Oh, man, this ROOKIE!!!! Wow, he really never heard of a tire shop SHAVING a replacement tire to match the other tire diameter? Wow, what do they teach these drivers today?

 

At least you are asking questions and trying to learn!

 

Don't be dismayed, I too am glad you are asking questions. This shows my age, when air ride trailers were new, the air bags did not deflate when setting the parking brakes, so that's a new one to me. Take "Alex" with a grain of salt, I'm sure he's forgotten what it's like to be a rookie, and if you don't know what the shock absorbers were, you probably don't know much about the air ride either, and totally understandable. It's not required today. A poorly or malfunctioning air ride can indeed exhibit the symptoms you mention, and should be looked into. Good luck. and don't be afraid to ask, it's why this site exists in the 1st place
