Anybody besides me using old school WD hitch?
I'm still a forum newbie, and one thing I've noticed is all the talk about the newer WD hitches like Hensley and Equalizer. When I go camping, I guess I don't really pay attention to others' hitches....

I love my old fashioned, reliable, wd hitch and dual friction sway control.
You are not unsafe if you don't use one of the different friction sway control devices (which the DC and the Equal-i-zer are) as a matter of fact sway control is not about what brand hitch you have.
Note: I have both Dual Friction bars and DC devices. I prefer the friction bars over DC. Equal-i-zer is about the same. The only difference is that Equal-i-zer uses metal on metal friction while a sway bar uses metal on brake pad material.
NOTE: If your trailer is over 25 ft you need to use TWO friction bars. Many people miss this and go from one and skip the second which would have taken the rest of the wiggle out of the rig and go straight to a DC or something else.
Thanks!
