I have a 94 Chevy Dually with air bags. I tow a 40' Spartan (Also an aluminum trailer.) The truck handles very well. I only use the air bags to level the trailer. And I don't use weight distrubution bars. There not needed on a dually, because the extra width of a dually, only makes you more stable.
I once left loose change on the kitchen table, when I towed it back from Seattle, Wa to Salem, Or. The pocket change was still where I left it, when I got to Salem.
Wow, A Sparten, What a cool trailer. 40ft? Thats a big guy. I usually see those lined up in old trailer parks sitting for years.. Nice to hear that you actually tow it around. Any pictures of your setup? Whats the tongue weight? Have you had it weighed before? Lets see some pics if you have a link better yet.
Thanks Vinnie

I should have found that myself in his profile pics.. Still hard to believe something like that can still travel down the road. I have a soft spot for those trailers. Wonder what the weight is? So he is not running bars with a 40 footer and drives those highways. Hmm. Seems like that is a big trailer and if something goes wrong it could really tug you around a bit. Shes a beauty.
