    Wanting sway only, no WD

    Is there a system where I can use just a bolt on friction sway control on a regular (non-wd) hitch? Just bought a new f-150. I don’t feel it needs a WD hitch as my tongue weight is only 350lbs. (FR NOBO 19.5). I do like my sway control though. Previous TV was a Tacoma. Thanks.

    Ram 2500 and Andersen Anti-Sway

    Sold my 4,600 lb, 26’ camper and bought a 7,300 lb, 27’ camper. TV is 2500 Ram. I needed very little WD with the former, and wondering about the latter. I am considering Andersen. Arthritis in hands makes it a bear to handle the 75lb hitch, the 20lb torsion bars, and then connecting friction...

    Blue Ox SwayPro - Scale numbers

    Posting the numbers for all to see and comment on if you wish. Bought the TT this past spring and 2 days later pulled it 1100+ miles without any issues despite having 25mph crosswinds. But now, loaded for our ventures, I get the feeling that it could be better. I do not experience any sway...

    (Re) Mounting a sway control ball to the camper tongue?

    We have a 195BH. I installed a ball for a friction sway control bar on the side of the tongue with the self threading bolts that came with the mount. These have pulled out, because I left the sway control on while backing and turning (don’t do that, btw). The holes are now just a little...

    Anti Sway vs weight distribution

    Just bought a 2019 Cherokee grey wolf. Which, if either, do you guys have? I haul with a 2016 f-150 3.5 turbo v-6. Should I get anti sway bars? What is the whole weight distribution thing about?? Thanks for the help!

    Hole in front of 21 fBRS from sway bar leaning on front

    My husband left the sway bar leaning on the front of our microlite while he was lowering the trailer. It poked a hole in the front from the pressure. Has this happened to anyone else and what expense is involved in fixing this? Thanks for any help Valerie Pierce

    Dangerous Sway

    I was pulling the trailer yesterday and went to make a lane change and saw someone in my blindspot. I swerved back and started a trailer sway that was amplifying. A good friend crashed his trailer a few years ago so I was sensitive to the issue and new what steps to take to recover. I had also...

    Positive: Andersen No Sway WDH

    Overall, I'm very pleased with my Andersen hitch. It's lightweight, quiet, easy to hook-up/remove and I have experienced very little sway, even in strong winds (no white knuckle encounters). It straightens the truck and trailer out immediately, if any sway is detected. I feel safe and I like it...
