Good afternoon.... I'm fairly new to the TT world and also to this board.
I have 2004 Yukon Denali (NOT XL) that will be pulling our 28' Layton (no slide outs or anything)with. I have pulled it a few times with the hitch and bars that came with it. It has pulled pretty nice with just a few adjustments with the weight bars, on my two short (less than 10 miles) trips. It came with 1 Reese friction sway bar that I didn't use. After reading reading this board I realize that friction bars aren't really the way to go on this long of a trailer.
I want to be on the safe side when traveling. What type of business would I goto for the the following:
1)To get my current hitch and bars adjusted to fit my truck / trailer
Assume this setup is just a draw bar with friction bars, right?
If not, then need more info
B)To get the Reese Dual Cam Sway bars installed
They all work and am now in favor of the Blue Ox Sway Pro.
Really boils down to two things...how much you willing to pay and
how you like their marketing or word of mouth advertising
I know the easy answer is 'A Camper Dealer', but I've seen a few people on here say to stay away from the dealerships.
This is the biggie and my response below
Thanks in advance !!
PS: No, I have not decided if I will be putting on ST or LT tires when they need to be replaced. :)
That biggie and since so many have reported poor to even less competence
in their dealer installation & setup...you should noodle learning
the HOW2's yourself. More on that is what if you should need to re-adjust
while on a trip?
Change the weighting of either the TV or Trailer or both?
The tools needed isn't a large investment and you need not get the
best that a pro would purchase
Plus, how will you know it is done right if you have no clue on how
it should be done, or how it should end up?
