Will Camper Ball Mount Work With Any Friction Sway Bar?

Question:

Are ball sizes on all friction bars standard size.Reason asking my pop up already had a ball wielded to the tongue,but I don't have a bar so would any mfg.bar work without having to cut this one off.

Each of the friction sway control systems we have uses a 1-1/4 inch ball, and each of the replacement ball and plate assemblies we carry use a 1-1/4 inch ball; I am not aware of a friction sway control system that uses a 2 inch ball, though you can use a caliper and measure the ball on your pop-up's tongue to ensure the diameter. Keep in mind that it will also need to measure 24 inches diagonally from the center of the ball on the coupler to work with a friction sway control system. Our most popular sway control system is the Reese # 83660, and we also carry the Curt # 17200.

I have added links to video reviews and installs of these products for you to take a look at.
