Sway Control Recommendation for a 2003 Toyota Tundra and Cargo Trailer with Varying Loads
Question:
I have a 2003 Toyota Tundra, V8 with factory tow package, and tow a 7x16foot continental cargo enclosed trailer 7000 lbs GVWR. The loads I carry are vary between empty and fully loaded, so I assume a WDH would be useless for me, what is the best sway control only solution for me?

Expert Reply:
For sway control only, I would go with the Reese friction sway control kit # 83660. For over 6,000 pounds, use 2 of these kits. You would also need to have a sway-control bracket on the ball mount, # RP26003 like in the video I have linked.
There are weight distribution systems that have a tongue weight capacity range that could encompass the range of weights you will be carrying in your trailer. If you know the approximate minimum and maximum tongue weights you will have, I will be happy to make some suggestions.
