Question:
I have a 2017 Honda Pilot ELX that we use to tow a 16 Scamp trailer. The hitch we use is a basic 9 rise Curt with 2 ball. The trailer can sway quite a bit on highway, especially during bad weather. Could you recommend a hitch product that offers sway control? Im not looking for WD or anything too large/heavy/complicated. Thank you

Expert Reply:
As you are not wanting a weight distribution this is going to limit you to either a Friction Sway Kit # 83660 with Sway Control Bracket # RP26003. Or you will need an Electronic Sway Control # 335TSC-1000. The friction sway will require you to take on and off the sway bar. I only recommend having it installed when driving on the highway as maneuvering can actually damage the bar or one of the ball mounts. The electronic use the trailers brakes to control sway by activating either the left or right side brake as needed when it detects sway. This is by far the easiest as it wires onto the trailer once and you are ready to go.
