Since your Forest River Wildwood X-Lite 171RBXL travel trailer is 22-1/2-feet in length and almost 10-feet tall it will certainly provide enough surface area for wind and air blasts from passing vehicles to cause some sway. Simple friction sway control devices like # 83660 can help reduce this sway and these are easy to install on the trailer frame. You'll need sway control bracket # RP26003 to mount the sway ball.

I suggest you start off with one and see how it affects handling in windy conditions. If you like what it does but want more, you can always add a second unit on the driver's side of the trailer frame (which will install upside down).

Since you are not having rear-end sag or front axle steering/braking issues this solution is by far your most economical option.
