Over the years I have tried nearly all the WDHs and sway control devices. I found that the Equal-I-Zer 4 pt Sway to be the best.

Thanks. Do you have the four point air suspension on your truck? From what I'm hearing that seems to be the quote on quote deal-breaker

I know this is old. I am new on this forum. After towing a Keystone 33' trailer for a while with my 2009 1500 and later a 2015 2500 with a couple different hitchs I bought a Andersen no sway hitch. They are not cheap, but what an improvement. Very simple system. No grease, no noise, no sway, no more disconnecting stuff due to sharp turns in RV parks, no more bouncing. And the whole system is lightweight. I no longer have the trailer as I got a motorhome. But I highly recomeed it.

My first trip with our new Toy Hauler RV, 25ft. Salem FSX, 28ft at tongue we wiggled and wiggled, tongue was too high. The dealer had set the Equalizer hitch upon picking up the RV. Our air systems need a few minutes to completely react. When you first hook up to the trailer the truck immediately lifts the rear, then about two minutes later it raises again, about an inch, just enough to put the trailer tongue too high. Readjusted upon return home and have no issues. We do not experience any rock and roll. Reese flat bar equalizer hitch.
