Advice on hauling gooseneck
I was wondering if anyone maybe could give me some advice.
I recently bought a gooseneck 3 horse slant with living quarters. it's about 22 feet long x 8' wide. the LQ has a 10' short wall. I have a 2001 F250 7.3 diesel, long bed. When I hook up, the rear end of my truck goes down and front end lifts up, too much in my opinion. I am supposed to get something called "Active Suspensions" installed tomorrow. They are supposedly relatively new on the market, so of course I can't find anyone who knows anything about them, except the shop that's putting them on, who said they would work as well as airbags at half the cost.
Anybody know about Active Suspension? Should I go with airbags? Just want to keep me and my pony safe. Thanks for any input!
p.s. i'm a girl, so please keep it simple
