Weight Distribution with Sway Control Recommendation that's Better than Friction Sway

Question:

I tow a 32ft 7000lb dry weight travel trailer. I already have a weight distribution bars/chains with the 1 friction anti-sway controller i attach but the trailer still seems to be all over the road at times, especially in wind gust such as passing vehicles, pulling the back of my truck around. I tow using a 2017 F150. Is there better hitch setups for better sway control on such a long trailer?

The best style of sway control is in the dual cam setup of the Reese Strait-Line part # RP66074 which actively works to prevent sway before it starts. It does this by trying to force the trailer into a straight line instead of a friction style that just tried to curb it once it's started. The tongue weight range for this kit is 600-1,200 lbs too.
