Recommended Suspension To Reduce Trailer That Sways Even With a Weight Distribution Hitch

Updated 03/08/2023 | Published 03/07/2023

Question:

I have a 2022 Gray Wolf Travel Trailer 24JS BL that I pull with my 2020 Ford F150 3.5L w/Tow Package. I also have the ReCurve R3 weigh distribution hitch with Sway Control. I have recently upgraded Goodyear Endurance Tires. I alway make sure I distribute weight towards the tongue, but I still have major sway issues. Im unable to exceed 62 mph and have issues every time a truck passes me. To help with this issue which would you suggest first to reduce sway, the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers on the trailer, installing the roadactive suspension RAS on the truck, or something else?

I recommend the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers # RM82MR for your 2022 Forest River Grey Wolf 24JS black label. This kit is specifically designed to work with your 3,500lb axles and will replace your double eye spring suspension with an independent slipper spring system. This will improve trailer traction and help reduce the trailer sway. The included gas shocks will help absorb road shock keeping your suspension planted and reduce trailer bouncing.
