Suddenly Swaying
First time this year taking the TT out on the road, and suddenly I am experiencing (minor) swaying where I’ve never experienced it before. I literally had to remember that the TT was back there when towing it in the past, and on this trip, I was feeling the sway and was being pulled to the side as vehicles passed me. It was very unnerving.
I don’t have weights to cite currently, however:
* All tires were checked and are at proper inflation pressure.
* Nothing substantive has changed on the trailer in terms of loaded gear - total or position. Trailer is a Jayco 33RBTS.
* Nothing substantive has changed on the truck or with the hitch - Silverado 2500 and Blue Ox SwayPro - with ONE exception - I just put all new tires on the truck.
I can’t imagine that tire choice would impact sway, would it?
Anything else I may have overlooked?
Should I load more weight in the front of the TT and see what happens? I’ll have to get it to a scale, but I we are leaving on vacation in 2 weeks and I want to get a handle on this before I drive it all over the state for a week.
Thanks!
