Getting Rid of my Dual Cam system
I really like this system but it's such a darn pain. It's so complex no one, anywhere, has any idea how to adjust it or install it. I just had it transferred to a new trailer and new bars also were...

Found out some information on the NEW Blue Ox Sway Pro. I've been talking to their Engineer and Vice President and it may not be as bad as everyone is thinking. I may get this system
The rotating latches help with sway but are not the priority sway control in the hitch, the head is.
Snip...
As long as the WD bars pivot in the hitch head (and they all do) I can see no way at all that the chains, or whatever they are attached to, can help prevent sway. The bars, and attached chains, turn with the A frame when the trailer turns. They are NOT in a fixed position during a turn or sway event. They DO move forward and backward but this has nothing to do with sway control and the chains.
Yes, I know the Dual Cam system uses chains but they do not move at all. All they do is hold up the cams that the WD bars slide on.
How Blue Ox can claim that the rotating latches that wind up (tension) the chains contribute to sway control is beyond me. If someone can enlighten me as to how that would be possible I would be greatly appreciative.
