ladder bars
Tired of the bucking and jerking.Allready put 1 piece drive shaft in no help.Truck is horrible with 5th wheel on.Im sure my southbend clutch dosen't help you can't back up at all unless you use 4 low.Even normal driving when you get out of the throttle you can feel driveline unload with a thud.We chained it to a tree to watch it's all axel wrap.I guess only solution is ladder bars but I need something that wil work when weight of fifth wheel is on suspension.

I would highly recommend a set of "Cal Trac" Traction Bars for your truck Sir!
I have a set on my 1996 Dodge CTD 12 valve and have to say they are one of the BEST mods I have ever done to my truck!
They are made by "Calvert Racing" out in California and their company is excellent to deal with. They are fully adjustable, either tighter or looser and you can decide what setting is best for YOUR TRUCK. I also think they are reasonably priced for what they do Sir.
Here is a link for you to their site with pictures etc:

Hope this helps you Sir!

Cal Tracs are a good, and relatively inexpensive option. They work.
I put on a set of Lazarsmith "Lazar bars". They completely eliminated axle wrap and also helped with sway.
I also tow a 5th wheel and they work well. Another option to consider.
