I run a Blue Ox sway pro with 1500# bars. Pulls great. My 31KQBS is nearly 40' tip to tip with 4 slideouts. So far its my favorite hitch. It pulls straight, is more robust than the Hensley I had before, and easier to setup than the Dual Cam (which I replaced the Hensley with).
Are you saying the blue ox is better than the hensley?
I trust the Blue OX more because of its robust construction. I did not get any sway with the Hensley, but neither did I with the Dual Cam or my current Blue Ox. The Hensley is a sound design, but has sub-standard weld quality, poor paint, and is harder to line-up for hitching in some circumstances. My trailer pulls great with the Blue Ox, so in my case, I would not be willing to switch back to a Hensley, even it cost the same as the Blue Ox. If I had a trailer that towed poorly, or a sub-par tow vehicle, than maybe I would reconsider a Hensley.
I have a Blue Ox pro and have been looking at Pro Pride as it makes sense to me on how it works. I just never heard anyone going away from a Hensley or Pro Pride back to something else.
