We could spitball all day long. It’s possible you’re overweight....it’s possible you have worn springs or shackles. If it were me I would contact Cottrell directly and get answers. They built it so they’d likely have the answers you need.

Make sure you run max psi in your tires if your loading like that.
Mattflat362 Thanks this. -
A set of heavy duty FT. springs may help but it may give you less warning of rolling the truck on its side also??
-
It is swaying because it is not enough truck IMHO. I edited because it looks legal but not stable.
-
I am leaning towards to heavy up top which is just wreaking havoc on your trucks handling dynamics.
-
Would splitting up the rear air bags by adding an additional air ride control valve so you have a left side and right side valve help?
-
If the front springs are original, I would think they’ll be sagging and just loosing some of there tensile strength.
They do get old, worn out.
