Oh yeah, and the air ride is a great idea for towing your camper anyway. Those trailers are really not built strong enough to endure the rough ride of towing with a heavier truck and leaf springs. There are some horror stories out there on the internet of fivers with the frame collapsed in the hitch area towing with a class 8 truck. Most of those guys are running an air ride fifth wheel. I found a good deal on my Trailersaver hitch on ebay for about half the price of a new one and I couldn't be happier with it. Very nice cushy ride for the trailer, with the added bonus of being able to dump the air to unhitch/hitch. All I have to do is run the landing gear down until it just touches the ground then dump the air on the hitch and the trailer is already leveled. My trailer is 23000# and the hitch is rated for 30000#.
