Recommended Sway Control For a Trailer With Surge Brakes
Question:
would the friction sway control be compatable with a surge brake? Item # D320
asked by: David V
Helpful Expert Reply:
I do have a recommendation as unfortunately the Friction Sway Bar # 17200 is not surge brake compatible. Using a hitch like the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET integrates sway control into the weight distribution. Best of all it works with surge brake and also does not require removal when backing up and maneuvering the trailer. If your trailer has a pole tongue we have the Adapter # EQ95-01-5950 which will fit a tongue 1"-5" wide and 2"-5" tall.
