OK...I've got another question along the lines of backing up...should or should we not disconnect the anti=sway bars before we back-up the TT? If the answer is going to be yes...I'm thinking we were darn lucky we didn't damage either the TT/TV or the hitch system when we had it jackknifed more often than not :S
We take the bars and friction sway bar off in the parking lot when checking in at the campground office, especially if it's a back-in site that we're not familiar with. Too much of an angle backing in can bend/damage the friction sway bar. This way, we don't have to worry about holding up traffic doing it on the campground road in front of the site. Driving the short distance to the site from the office shouldn't be a problem, even if you're sagging a bit. I've gotten some strange looks doing this, but I could care less!
