sway

I am new to the class A world. I have a 2017 Thor Miramar 35.2. It sways considerably in winds and when trucks are passing. My thoughts are to add a sway bar. My question is should I put on front, back, or both?

Is it normal for the 2022 Berkshire XLT 45CA to sway/rock a bit when level? Whenever one of my kids roll over in bed or someone comes in/out of the coach I can feel the coach sway/rock a bit when laying in bed, sitting down etc. Is this normal?

I have a recently purchased 2017 rockwood ultra lite 2608WS. I have had previous travel trailers but not with slide outs and never experienced sway to this degree before. I know that trailer weight should be biased toward the front and never rear heavy. However, with this trailer, the vast...

I would really appreciate some guidance from the members on significantly reducing trailer sway in windy conditions and when a tractor trailer is passing on the interstate highways. It makes me quite nervous, and I would like to get past that and know that we are safe. We once had a stationary...

Hi folks, our previous tow vehicle, Subaru Ascent, didn't allow for WDH or mechanical sway control and our new tow vehicle is a 2024 Silverado 2500 CCSB 4x4 6.6 gas which is a big overkill for our trailer which is a 2022 Wolf pup 16BHSBL. We pulled this trailer with the Ascent for about 10K...

Hello. I tow a Salem 24rlxl with a 2018 Ram 1500. A couple of questions: 1) the truck sags with a full load. Can I put heavy duty coils on the rear-end to overcome the sag? 2) should I engage the “tow load” the entire time I tow? What if the terrain is fairly flat? 3) what is a good...
