EB towing 28BHSWE and needing WDH recommendations

My next WD Hitch system will be a Blue Ox Sway Pro

Have had several others and am always reading up on the latest and
greatest to educate myself.

Go a farther into how they work than most will do. Just the way I am and love
forensics of any kind...at that is how I learn to the depth I want/need to
Also known as reverse engineering

SwayPro is the only OEM who talks about the natural anti-sway WD Hitches that
use spring bars. Even then, they only gloss over it

Lost on the other OEM hitch chain system that allows the bar end to swing side
to side freely

SwayPro captures or limits side to side movement of the chains in a
unique way to increase that natural anti-sway effectiveness. This also
increases the bar tension on one side...while on the other side...it
pulls...opposite to the direction of the sway...AKA anti-sway

Since their head tilt is cast in...there is already a dialed in max spring bar
travel during the chain tensioning...that the other OEM designs need to have
serrated washers, number of washers, bolt holes, etc. That then places the adjustment
only on the rating of the bar and the amount of chain tension

Also, their chain attachment is really nifty. Both in how they mount to the
trailer tongue and how the rotating cam tensioner works...along with a good
tool to rotate that cam

I'm impressed with the quality of just about everything. From the casting
design/detail, to how they have sealed off the grease reservoir for the head
sockets for the bars. The bars do NOT see any grease, nor do they need to

See that they have changed the bar end slot/hole for the holding bolt/nail at
the hitch head. Their previous had a tendency to pop out on just a few that
I've read about. This new design looks better, but only time will tell


Bottom line is that nothing, but nothing beats staying within the
'real' or 'true' ratings of all and setting up the trailer/TV correctly

Trailer level at its highest pointing...and I prefer slightly down

Tongue weight (actual) in the 12% to 15% range (this is where the
lower class TV's get into trouble...along with their RGAWR)

Proper WD Hitch setup and dialed in to 'your' TV/Trailer's actual weights

I just bought a new trailer and the Blue Ox SwayPro. I've only made a 2 hour pull with the new set up but it was in heavy winds and felt much better than my old Draw-Tite. I can say my contacts with Blue Ox customer support has been nothing less that outstanding.

I'm going with a Blue Ox Sway Pro on our new trailer. It has a GVWR of 10,000 lbs. I called Blue Ox and they said to go with the 1500 lb. bars.

I'm happy with my Blue Ox hitch. Rides nice, easy to hook up, and the rotating chain latches with built-in safety latches seem more secure to me than the flip up style chain latches on other hitches. I really like my Reese Dual cam too, but this doesn't require any special setup, and no more problems with the bars popping out on real sharp turns.
