I just bought a Blue Ox Sway Pro. Love the ease of installing and hooking up. BUT, it didn't work for me. Constantly "danced" going down the road. Had to stay on top of the steering like balancing a marble on top of a balloon. When a semi was passing me it tried to suck my truck in to the side of his cab and when he went by tried to blow me off the ditch side!!
I bought it from my hitch shop and he installed it. After many phone calls back to the hitch shop and nearly 2 days out on the freeway trying every possible position and chain tension I gave up. My hitch guy is baffled. He said he sells dozens of these a year with no complaints. He also called Blue Ox for suggestions and they told him to have me disable the factory sway control. Well, I did but made no difference. And I wasn't about to disable a proven feature to trust only a hitch.
The dealer took back the Blue Ox and I am back to my antiquated Husky. At least it works.
