Sway/Reece dual cam issue with a F250
Ok I just about had it with my Reece Dual cam set up. This is my second trailer with it and I've replaced 4 snap up brackets the last one being their HD version. The cam arm mount bolts stripped out...

The photo shows your cam support arms are at a very steep angle.
It also looks as though you have the hexagonal washer set to give maximum rearward tilt of the ball mount.
And, it looks as though you have 8 or 9 chain links under tension.
I think you would have fewer problems if you decreased the amount of rearward tilt to make the WD bars closer to horizontal.
That should help with some of your problems. And it will make your chains a little closer to vertical.
Then decrease the number of chain links under tension to get proper weight distribution.
I believe the instructions say you can have as few as 5 links under tension.
You should be able to raise the WD bars a considerable distance without creating contact between bars and cam arms.
Figure 14 on Page 8 of these instructions shows a good WD bar angle.
