Question:
Thanks for the quick reply. Another question: I'm thinking about trading my Nissan in for 3/4 ton pickup, possibly the Chevy 2500 HD. Would the double friction set up you recommended for the Nissan also be suitable for the Chevy?

Expert Reply:
The exterior length of your Sonic Venture SN231VRK is 26-1/2 feet which is just over the length where a second friction sway control system is recommended of 26 feet. So your best option would be to install a second # 83660.
Typically, to add a second sway-control bracket to their WD hitch, the Draw-Tite Sway Control Tab, part # 3442 is welded on to the head of the system, giving an additional mount for the sway control ball. You'd then remove the inner section of the # 83660, rotate it 180 degrees and then reinsert it so that it will be properly orientated for that side of the trailer.
