Aside from the trip home from the dealer last October we haven't pulled our 177 on a trip yet. Been winterized and undercover since. We'll be towing it with a 2011 Tacoma 6cyl, 4 Dr Short Bed (6 spd manual transmision). I have seen a variety of comments about "sway bars", "load stabilizers" etc. At the moment we have nothing but a hitch. It seemed to tow fine over the 3 hour trip home in October but we do get a lot of wind up here in Wyoming and there are a lot of 18 wheelers. So   ...I'm thinking some form of sway control might not be a bad idea, but I'm not quite sure where to start. I am looking for the simplest and most basic apparatus that will minimize fishtailing.

Anyone out there with a good handle on the various types, brand names and typical prices? Also, are these devices something that can be installed by the owner or do you have to find a dealer.

Thanks in advance,

MJ
