Product description

A sway control unit is an inexpensive solution to the problem of a wandering trailer. CURT sway control units are designed to attach to your vehicle and trailer at the coupling point and counteract any lateral movement in your trailer, keeping your tow load straighter on the road and giving you more control over your vehicle. The sway bar uses a material like that used in brake pads to provide the necessary resistance while still allowing your vehicle to complete proper turns with your trailer attached. The sway control mounts onto the frame of your trailer and connects to the vehicle's ball mount using a separate trailer ball from that used for coupling the trailer. CURT sway controls are adjustable and easy to install. They come with a sway unit, a trailer-mounted attachment ball and bolts, a hitch-mounted attachment ball, a weld-on tab, a mount reinforcement plate and attachment clips. Though a weight distribution hitch is not an ideal solution for trailer sway on its own, CURT weight distribution hitches are made to be combined with a sway control unit and many are available with a sway controls included for a complete package. CURT also carries ball mounts that are specially designed to work with a sway control kit, having a sway tab welded right onto the ball mount platform.

FEATURES:

  • IMPROVED CONTROL. This trailer sway control kit helps limit your trailer’s lateral movement, using a brake pad type material to restrict and deter trailer sway
  • VERSATILE. This trailer sway bar is compatible with a wide variety of weight distribution hitches, including almost all CURT weight distribution hitches. It can also be used on most A-frame trailers
  • HIGHLY ADJUSTABLE. This sway bar hitch easily adjusts for different trailer types and load sizes. It uses a simple hex nut toggle to adjust the level of trailer sway restriction
  • EASY SETUP. Setting up this trailer sway control unit with your weight distribution hitch is fast and easy. With the included trailer balls mounted in place, the simply on-off handle makes it easy to engage or disengage the sway control whenever needed
  • COMPLETE KIT. This anti trailer sway bar includes everything needed for installation on your camper or RV as well as your weight distribution hitch or sway tab ball mount #45820
