Can Sway Control System Be Installed On Both Sides Of A Trailer At The Same Time

Published 10/28/2015

Question:

I see all kinds of videos showing how to hook up one friction sway control is there a video to show how to hook up both at the same time? Thanks

I have attached a link to a video that shows how to install the sway control. If you look at about the 2:20 mark of the video it shows how to install the sway control for use.

When you are hooking up the friction sway control like part # 83660, you first place the forward end over the ball on the ball mount platform and loosen the handle so that the back can be slipped over the ball mounted on the trailer frame. This would then be done for the other side as well. Unless there were two people attaching the sway control systems it would be very difficult to install both sides at one time.

After the sway control has been attached on both sides you can secure the system with the handle on the sway control.
