Question:
Hi, I have a 2019 Tacoma TRD Off-road double cab with aftermarket old man emu suspension and tow a 2020 RPOD 178 travel trailer. Sag isnt bad the truck sits level, but I do get swaying with lane correction or cross wind. Would a sway bar help, or is a weight-distribution hitch necessary? Can I start with a sway bar and add a WDH later if necessary? Is there a way to do this without drilling into the trailer?

Expert Reply:
If you are not experiencing sag then you can start with just the Reese Friction Sway Control Kit part # 83660 and the Reese Sway-Control Bracket for 2" Ball Mounts part # RP26003.
There is no good way to attach this other than welding to avoid putting holes in the frame. I know it is not much better.
If this does not get the results you are looking for a weight distribution setup with built in sway control can be a very effective way to resolve it completely.
