The Lock N Roll Shanks like the part # 336VS501 do not have any sway control built into them so they would not have ability to eliminate need for sway control. In general though the best best way to prevent sway is with proper trailer loading. If you can load the trailer so that the amount of tongue weight is 10 to 15 percent of total trailer weight you wouldn't need sway control.
