When you’re towing a big trailer, crosswinds and passing semis can cause serious sway. The Blue Ox SwayPro uses a built-in sway control system with a positive caster angle in the hitch head that helps your trailer self-center as you drive. Constant tension in the trunnion bars holds the trailer firmly in line, while the rotating lift brackets keep the chains tight so there’s almost no side-to-side movement. The result is a quiet, stable tow without the popping or grinding that comes with friction-style systems.
With a 20,000-lb gross towing weight and a 1,500–2,000-lb tongue weight range, this hitch is built to handle serious loads. By evenly distributing weight across all your axles, it keeps your rig level and your steering responsive. The preset pitch on the hitch head makes setup simple right out of the box, and once installed, the truck and trailer feel like one unit on the road.
Backing into a campsite or driveway shouldn’t mean stopping to remove sway control parts. The SwayPro’s integrated sway control lets you reverse and make tight turns without disconnecting anything. It’s one of the biggest advantages over traditional friction-bar systems—smooth control whether you’re maneuvering slowly or cruising down the highway.
Getting everything set up is quick and straightforward. The clamp-on rotating lift brackets mount about 29" back from the hitch ball and require no drilling into the trailer frame. The hitch head comes preset at the correct angle, so you can bolt it up and adjust height using the 13" shank with 1-1/4" spaced holes. Even the trunnion bars lock in place easily with pins and clips. Maintenance is simple too, thanks to built-in grease zerks in the head assembly.
Everything about the Blue Ox SwayPro is made to last—from its powder coated steel construction to the secure chain-and-bar setup that stays tight under pressure. The system includes the head assembly, adjustable shank, spring bars, lift chains, rotating lift brackets with handles, reducer bushing for the ball shank, pin and clip, hitch ball, and all necessary hardware. With its durable build and limited lifetime warranty, it’s ready for years of reliable towing.

Great product, absolutely no issues with it. However, the chains still stink and wish they had a better alternative for this heavy hitch.

Bought a 30’long 7.5’ inside height, bumper pull race car trailer in Dallas. Driving 8hours back home with my dually and no weight distribution hitch, trailer empty, sway was terrible. Weighted tounge and was 1700# empty! Ordered the Blue Ox Hitch with 2k bars and problem solved

The hitch works very well. Im not a fan of the wrench Blue Ox supplies to rotate the cams. I had a situation where the pin didnt lock the cam in place due to dirtsnow/ice but didnt notice. When I relaxed the tension on the cam, it rotated back down and smacked my had against the frame rail. I now use a 15 breaker bar with a 3 extension to give my hand some clearance- just in case it happens again!

It does the job but is very heavy due to the hitch being the largest they make. You need to be careful attaching and detaching the spring arms. I found the best way is to raise the trailer as high as possible when attached to the truck hitch. This relieves the tension enough to make install and removal of spring arms easier. The install video showed 3 exposed chain links when attaching spring arms. I have found 4 is better.

I recommend touching up the WD system with a rust resistant paint. Over time the system will experience nicks and scratches from road debris and having the paint on hand will be beneficial.

The hitch works fantastic easy to hook up and no sway, and it is quiet.

Very good. My toy hauler pulls perfect, especially after installing the 58 spacers between the trailer tongue and the clamp on lift brackets.
