    You definitely need a brake controller....brakes are required.

    Sway control is optional and is determined by how well your loaded trailer handles at highway speeds...

    I would get a brake controller and i would atleast get a WHD hitch after that id drive it and see. You could probably get by without but for the couple hundred bucks in my opinion its worth it. I like to relax when i travel.
