On big trucks, I prefer a solid setup over bags with something like that tanker. Bags roll in the turns a lot more than a leaf or block setup.

I know it's totally different than what your doing, but it's something to take into consideration
I used to drive trucks and we had a dump truck with full air ride, it used to be a truck with a 5th wheel that we converted to a dump truck... and yeah I totally understand what your saying, that thing would rock like a boat when it was loaded... also when you get going down the road it takes a min for the bags to level out and you get to rocking back and forth (like body roll back and forth) like your on a boat. I'm HOPING that my setup doesn't end up like that. but If it does, I will figure out how to fix it.
