Put your heavy stuff up front and the lighter stuff in the back and it should tow straight as an arrow..

If not, then the trailer design is wrong, meaning the trailer axle is not back far enough on the trailer to tow properly...

Good luck!

Mitch,

It only sways when it's really windy.
It doesn't happen often but it's enough to be concerned.

I'm looking to eliminate any sway, have more control if possible and be somewhat future proof with the Equalizer.


Thanks,


Randy
