   Our dealer was saying that drilling would void the warranty but did not offer to sell us any other setup. we towed or 178 for 3 years with our Ranger with no problems. what do others think drill or not? everything I have read said you use the sway control. thanks for the replys all.

	Did your dealer offer to sell you a new WDH? At cost, of course.

	+1 Tars, drilling the frame is the issue with some folks.

	I've never heard that adding a sway bar would void a Pod warranty. I suppose one could argue about drilling or welding on the frame.... It might be a good time to look at something like a Fastway E2 WDH with integrated sway control (that let's you back up without undoing anything. https://www.amazon.com/Fastway-Trunnion-92-00-0600-Distribution-Standard/dp/B0071L3T3G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1528513429&sr=8-2&keywords=fastway+e2+weight+distribution+hitch+92-00-0600 TT

	We just traded or 2015 178 in for a 2018 180, our dealer did not want to install the sway control from our 178 saying that it would void the warrenty, that we did not need it because these were for smaller units like pop-ups. any ideals, will it really void warrenty?. I'm really not quite sure I want to tow without it.
