Friction anti-sway device use in rain or wet roads
So; when trailering in the rain while using the friction anti-sway device, should I loosen or tighten this thing?

I never really fiddled much with my sway bars. I just bottomed out the on off bar and rolled with it. I did give the tension bolts a 1/4 turn like the instructions say. I did take the slider bars out to clean them like the instructions say too. I will not take them off in the rain again but would in snow and or on a gravel or off road situation.
I don't think I communicated well last night. Sway control does give you an additional level of safety and control. They resist or dampen sudden movements, wind, passing vehicles and what not.
My concern is for people to start with the right TV, balanced Trailer, properly adjusted hitch, then add friction sway control after that other stuff is dialed in.
Friction sway control augment a good set up. They do not cover up a bad set up. I hope that makes sense.
Thanks,
Jeremiah
