RAS Vs Hellwig Vs Both

I have an 03 ex with a 6L PSD and I'm in the process of getting a new travel trailer, 30Ft Outback, and was looking for some advise on gaining a little more stability on the road. I'm bringing the Ex in the shop for new ball joints this week and figured while it was there I would also get either the Hellwig, RAS or Both. Is it really necessary for both or will one due.

Thanks

I have the hellwig and it made a huge difference. Then I did the V/B spring upgrade with bilstien shocks and it performs flawlessly. We tow a 30ft travel trailer @ 8000lb with this set-up. But I can't comment on the ras I have never seen it.
