If a truck has built in sway control, (2022 Ford Ranger) is anything else necessary regarding a hitch setup? If you're within the guidelines of the manufacturer re: tongue weight. What else needs to be done?
The truck is rated to tow 7500 lbs and I'm only planning to tow about 4500.
Thanks in advance,

Not a thing, most likely, unless you have an ill-mannered trailer or need some suspension help.
PS, people towed for a long time without automatic vehicle/trailer built in sway control. (Not that it doesn't work, it does, if needed)
But sway control is either a band-aid for a trailer that is built "wrong" or loaded incorrectly, or it is just not of any other advantage.
The "what if" doomsday conditions scenario folks, speak largely out of fear or ignorance, not experience.
Food for thought, from someone who has been pulling 100s of different trailers with 100s of different trucks in virtually every road/weather/geographical condition our country has to offer, since Gdubya was president.
