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?

The hitch doesn't have the tab on the other side, and it's not flat so I can't buy a flat tab and have it welded. The spot where a tab would go is a compound curve.
I suppose a trailer shop could cut and weld a custom piece. Would you recommend I go to the trouble and expense?
It sounds like you have a reese hitch head. When you buy a new sway bar it will come with a small tab to weld on to the hitch head which you will mount the new sway bar to. Yes someone will have to custom fit it and weld it to the hitch head... But it is worth the trouble.
For me, with my 31 ft travel trailer the first sway bar took out about 85% of the wiggle between the TV and TT the second sway bar took out the remainder of the wiggle and made the push and pull from passing vehicles impact the truck and trailer as one unit.
Thanks!
