Yep sounds like it. Mine was especially bad on cold starts early in the morning, but it has been running well since I had it replaced - apparently they're known to only last around 120-130k if...

The most common issues for your symptoms is the idler pulley tensioner thingamajig.
Not a hard job to replace. Use only genuine gear, as all others are well known to develop issues again.

As mentioned - springs will be the problem and airbags won't help.
Your shocks may still be perfectly fine, but should be checked anyway after a good long trip like that.
I just changed out all...
I did shocks, springs and poly airs. Careful how heavy you go as the ride can turn to crap if you go too heavy.
I agree with ET

Don't go the airbags
The Towball weight of the Argyle should be 80 to 120 Kg (the Tare is only 800).
A Patrol shouldn't even notice that... so if you have got the "Dog with Worms dragging its butt"...
I would go the coils, other may go the air bags
Finally finished setting up my reversing camera for the VMS X506 in dash unit in my 2008 GU Troll. I used I CMD17N from Parkmate and it tucked away nicely underneath the Patrol badge in the left barn...
