Can Friction Sway Control Be Installed on Driver Side of Trailer
Question:
Im looking to install a second friction style sway control, however all the friction style sway rigs appear to be for the passenger side of the trailer only. Is there a driver side version or can the rig be flipped to fit the driver side. I have a 10k/1k pro series WD hitch and my new trailer is 37foot long my old one was only 25.

Expert Reply:
You can pretty easily install a friction sway control system on the driver side of a trailer. You would just need to remove the inner piece of the system like part # 83660 and then rotate it 180 degrees and reinsert it into the outer piece.
You would then need the part # 3442 to weld onto the driver side of your ball mount.
