Newest style WD Hitch

But it still costs 5-30 times more than this simple one that I'm going to try.  It's all about saving money if it all works the same.

Springs or poly blocks, I see how it does weight distribution, but I don't see how it does anti sway.

Pick your poison. It looks like it should work. Let us know.

Question. My new Colorado has a tow selection to keep the transmission of shifting so much. I have load and sway control. My owners manual says to use traction control on the truck to help control trailer sway. Uses the breaks. Any thoughts on that? I will not pull with my sway/load control.

Seems to be a moot point. I went to the Amazon link, and it is currently unavailable with no projected date for when or if it will be back in stock. I would be interested in finding out if it works well. The hitch head for the Equal-i-zer is very heavy and the bars are also not light.

However, I think those bars saved me from going into a full jackknife this past December when we hit ice with wind in Wyoming. The bar hit the rear bumper and between that and the corner of the R-Pod hitting above the driver's side rear wheel, it stopped further movement. I don't know whether this chain version would have done any better. I purchased the Hayes SwayMaster electronic sway control to have an  extra measure of control. I felt it activating a couple of times on our last trip when we hit some particularly bad spots in the road.

 There are some vehicles that do use the on board vehicle stability control system to also help control trailer sway when towing. I admit not knowing how it can detect a trailer starting to sway (maybe the rear yaw sensor in the tow vehicle?), but what I have read is that it can selectively apply the trailer brakes to dampen sway. I don't know how effective it is or if it also costs extra fuel and brake pads as well!!!
