Be careful you don't trip while doing all that back peddling. ;)
The manufacturer of the Equal-i-zer has claimed since the beginning that the majority of the sway control was at the hitch head end of the spring bars. Not being an engineer nor having played a role in the design of the system, I take their word for it.
My personal observation of wear on the surfaces of the Equal-i-zer hitches is that the manufacturer is correct. I didn't just read and look at pictures, I have owned and used two of them.
