Need Advice

Hi everyone. I recently added a sled /quad deck on the box of my truck so I could haul my quads and tow our camper as apposed to buying a tow hauler.

The quads are about 1000lbs each. The camper GVW is 7500lbs. Because of the shortened turning radius with the sides out and that it is a 8 ft deck on a 7 foot box I will need to add an 18 inch super hitch or titan hitch for the need length.

Now with the added weight from the quads the rear sits really low to the ground. I am virtually looking up when behind the wheel

I am thinking I will add air bag suspension. But I am a little worried about wrecking something with the added length of the hitch and the weight.
TIA

Gears are 3.73

Thanks

Well I found the solution. Just need the air bags and I'm good to go.
