Maybe you want a stiffer spring.
Or find a way to Balance your Boat trailor better.
I am not sure that is possible, but it can be tried.

or Air bags. this is a crazy idea, but might work...

There is a post on airbags at another "place". It might just work. He used them to level the load with a lot of tools being carried in the back of his "N" ride. As the suspension parts are the same, I don't see why not.

Thanks Digger. Some places are picky about links. As it turns out he used a 07 Libby kit.
You can find it here page 2 & 3 Bottom of 2 top of 3. Unfortunately, the person who posted it used thumnails for the Pics. You will have to be a member to see them.
Here is one I borrowed.

I had Polyairs in the rear of my last 4x4. They were great for towing. If the bum sags just pump her back-up.

Nice, my Air bag idea is valid..

Woootttt...

Posting from another forum should never be a big deal, if it is, then we are in the wrong place.
As those nitros are very much the same thing... so it is relivent.
