Expert Reply:

The Sway Bracket Jackets for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems # EQ95-01-5150 are only designed for use with the Equal-i-zer systems such as the Equal-i-zer Weight # EQ37100ET and should not be used with your Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17499.

Friction-on-friction systems are always going to have some noise, but the best way for you to minimize the noise is to use the Equal-i-zer High-Performance Lubricant # EQ91-00-4250.

According to Curt, using this type of lubricant is the best way to minimize noise; you'll want to apply it to the inner and outer ball bearings, grease zerk and lightly coat the hitch ball with grease as well every day before you tow. I have added a link to a video review of this lubricant for you which I recommend taking a look at.
