Question:
Which sway bar do I get for my 1999 Ford 150 to pull a small camper weighing 3,925 and a hitch weight of 380. Thanks

For your camper trailer that weighs 4,000 lbs, the weight distribution hitch with sway control I highly recommend is the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution with 2-Point Sway Control # FA94-00-0600.
The reason the Fastway is the best option is because it is easily the best value among weight distribution hitches, with a unique combination of relative cost-effectiveness and high quality. The two points of sway control on the e2 are at the brackets, and the friction they create is what gives the system its outstanding sway control. It is also really easy to set up, especially compared to systems that use chains.
As you can see by the reviews on the product page of the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution with 2-Point Sway Control # FA94-00-0600, our customers who have used it have given it a nearly 5-star rating.
It comes with a shank but you will need a hitch ball as well, with the correct one depending on your trailer's coupler:
- 2" Hitch Ball # EQ91-00-6080
or
- 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # EQ91-00-6100
I have added some links below to video reviews for you to check out as well of the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution with 2-Point Sway Control # FA94-00-0600.
