Make sure your weights ie hitch to axel weight % is good. Along with, is the trailer level to nose down etc. ALso, make sure the weights side to side are as close to equal as possible. ie no more than 200-300 maybe 500 max. More than 500 and pulled over in Wa st, that is a fine for incorrect loading. Also, if the trailer wants to sway no matter what you do, it could be V'd axels. That is not correctable with a sway system. Well, it might stop the sway per say, tires will rub, scrub, screw up mpgs etc. If the sway system breaks, your trailer will still sway. So get all the sway issues fixed before installing the sway system.
Otherwise, no matter the trailer they have a tendency to sway. Including that equipment trailer with a bobcat, or add in the mini trackhoe on my ET at 12K total. Even a 12K empty Navistar dumptruck can get pushed around if the ET starts to sway due to incorrect loading.
