Helpful Expert Reply:
The Curt Friction Sway Control Kit part # 17200 and Reese Friction Sway Control Kit part # 83660 are both very similar. I recommend the Curt because it comes with a weld-on sway control tab for use without a weight distribution head so that makes it a better deal. The Reese does have an edge on warranty, 10 vs 1 but I still think the Curt is a better deal overall and what I recommend using.
