Should Rivet Nuts Or Thread Forming Screws Be Used When Installing Dual-Cam Sway Control

Question:

Hi, Do I need to use these rivnuts to install the dual cam arms with the thread forming screws or can I just tap threads directly into the frame? Thanks..

The Rivet Nuts for Reese Dual Cam High Performance Weight Distribution, part # RP58507, are included with a dual-cam system like part # RP26002. You can check out the installation instructions that are attached for the # RP26002 and see how these are installed.

The thread forming screws are used on a tubular style frame attachment, and are not used on a standard trailer frame.
