There are a couple of different ways you can go to add a second Reese Friction Sway Control Kit # 83660 to your larger trailer.

The first, and probably simplest, way is to have 2 of the Weld-On Sway Control Tab # C45822 welded on to both sides of the ball mount. You will want to have these welded on by a qualified welder. I've included a diagram to help with the location of the tab for both width and depth so you will also want to ensure it is 5-1/2 inches on center from ball to ball.

The second way is to use the Reese Sway-Control Bracket for 2" Ball Mounts - Class III and IV # RP26003 on the right side and have the # C45822 welded on to the left side.
