My truck SUCKS towing.

Ok here is the situation. we had a 30 foot 99 jayco travel trailer, my truck handled that camper just fine. Last week we traded it in on a 08 34 foot camper that weighs in at 9,000 lbs loaded.

NOW with the new camper once I get over 50mph it wants to pull the rear end of my truck left and right. I have adjusted, adjusted again and re adjusted my WD hitch setup but nothing helps at all. I even ran it down the road without the spring bars at all. Am I right to start thinking that there is a problem somewhere with my truck??? What its doing is not sway, I have experienced sway with my old truck.

Is there any bearings, bushings or ANYTHING I should check out? The only thing different with my truck since I pulled the old camper is the ball joints, they were replaced 2 weeks ago.

I KNOW this camper isn't more than my truck can handle and its making me go crazy
