With my set up, I did not add airbags since the truck was pretty much level with the Momentum hooked up. I did add Timbrens to limit the chucking on bumps, uneven pavement, and bridges, and they have helped a lot.
Our fiver is 14K with 3K on the pin. Absolutely no need for air bags. The truck sits perfectly level with the loaded trailer on the hitch, full fuel, truck box in the bed, etc.
I agree with others that the F350 (mine is a 2017) does not need airbags.... I tow a Grand Design Reflection 337 RLS with a pin weight in the 2600 lb range. The back of the truck squats a bit, and the trailer is slightly nose up, but no problems towing.
Is that 2,600 lbs. pin weight per the scales? If so, you must travel without much in the trailer!

Took the 2018 out for its first camping trip and probably our last for this season. What a night and day difference from the 2014 man this thing tows great and is quite! I was hoping we could get away without airbags on this one but no dice, ordered Torque bags today.
I just installed Air Lift 5000’s. I can’t tell if it’s those or the new Mor Ryde pin box but the ride is much better this way. A lot less chucking and a smoother ride.
The truck squatted about 3” with RV so I raise it about 1” with the bags. 1/2” worked well too.
