In this video, I install an anti-sway control bar and Ball Mount Adapter. We have taken our pop up our a few times now and anything I go above 60mph, it starts to sway back and forth. so by adding this sway bar control kit, we should be able to easily get back up to a faster speed and still drive smoothly! I will come back at a later time and update the video with how it went, but we do plan to remove it when we are driving around in neighborhoods and not on the highway. the turn radius is mot the best, so we have to deal with that! But that is ok, so here is to make more camping getaways!
Camper sway is when the trailer starts to swing side-to-side behind the tow vehicle, usually while you're going down a highway. Trailer sway can become dangerous and uncontrollable if not managed. It can even lead to accidents.
The most common causes of sway are gusts of wind, drafts from passing semi-trucks, turns on curvy roads, and imbalanced loads in the trailer. Even a small amount of sway can be exhausting for a driver, forcing constant steering adjustments. Weight distribution and sway prevention systems make for a safer and smoother ride.
So what causes sway? Trailer sway has several causes: Improper weight distribution, driving too fast, and wind gusts or bursts of wind from other large vehicles like RVs or semi-trucks.
If you want to stop your travel trailer from swaying when you are going down the road, then a sway bar is probably going to be the best accessory that you can invest in for your new camper.
A sway bar is simply a device that stiffens side-to-side motion to minimize it. They can be installed on vehicles to minimize body roll or on hitches to minimize camper sway.

It doesn't look like the threads of the hitch ball go past the nut when you tightened it down, that's not right, threads should go past the nut. I don't think that's safe.

You are correct. He needs a ball with a longer shank

@@ridge69 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oD_aI8czbTI.html The directions say it too, must protrude two threads beyond the nut as he displayed in the video. He's a Farmer's Insurance commercial away from an accident waiting to happen, you need to change that main hitch ball out! Don't be a Use Watcha Got in this case. With more thought on this, I would say take out that extra plate and you gain back the threads. It's probably there for cases like that when you need more or less thickness. Can't see the rest of the directions in the video.

@SantaFeVman it would be nice if you’d all move on. It’s a mistake I didn’t even realize I made and I don’t even own the hitch or pop up anymore. I appreciate you all putting it out there to help others, but I had no desire to share bad information. At this point the comments are becoming rude. Just a guy sharing my experience on RU-vid, if you don’t like it move on. Also, that particular kit required you to have a removable hitch with threads. If you don’t like it, just move on.

Pliers are not the proper tools in this situation

Would you be able to mount it if the hitch was up instead of down?
@UseWhatchaGot
@UseWhatchaGot Месяц назад
Hi gforce, just trying to understand your question - do you mean if the hitch was higher? if that is what you are asking then, no. We had to get the adjustable hitch for height because everything was too tall. To my understanding, you want what you are pulling to be as balanced as possible, so if the front of your trailer/camper/pop up/etc is too high that could be bad while you are rolling down the road at 60mph. Hopefully that answers your question.

@@UseWhatchaGot When you place the hitch bar and ball into the vehicle you have it facing down. I was wondering f you could do it facing up.

@gforce9068 ah! I see. To be honest, that never crossed my mind. I feel like you might be able to. One mistake I made was the main ball’s threads were not long enough to make it go through the nut, so I should have purchased a new ball that was longer (taller?).
