Default Air bags or Sway bar

I have a 2010 2500 cummings, And a Lance 825 Camper, I have not put the camper on the the truck yet, any body know if I will need Air bags or just a Sway bar, or nothing at all. Camper weighs 1755lbs, and truck is rated at 3150lbs.

might want the airbags just to help with the ride while going down the road. I know on our superduty the airbags took a lot of the bounce out of the ride while pulling trailers. You can always just put the camper on and see how it sits and how it drives but if I had to choose between bags and a sway bar I would choose the bags every time.

please explain how a sway bar helps?

I mean I guess if you think that the camper will induce body roll then maybe...

I doubt you will need either as that camper is designed for a 1500 series truck...
