Is Electric Sway Control Needed With Tow Setup with Weight Distribution and Friction Sway Control
Question:
My TV is a 2015 VW Touareg V6 with 7700 lb towing capacity and 600 lb tongue weight. My TT is a Forest River Rpod 20.4 feet. 3000 dry weight..3800 GVW. My RV dealer installed the E2 WDH with integrated sway. Do I still need something like the sway master or with the built in sway be enough?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Assuming your trailer is loaded properly (with cargo weight as far forward as possible), and you are using a weight distribution system with sway control built in like the Fastway E2 I wouldn't say an electric sway control like the part # 335TSC-1000 would be necessary. It certainly wouldn't hurt and it would be nice knowing that in the event of any sway it would immediately stop and correct it though.
