In fact a poorly adjusted hitch of either type will be useless, as they both rely on TW for their anti sway properties.
So if one is not wiling/able to adjust them properly, they would be better served by a friction control, as it will provide some sway resistance even if the hitch setup is terrible.
Huntingdog,
Your point is well taken. I think and hope that all users take the time to be sure the hitch is set up properly so it will work at it's best.
While I agree TW is critical to anti sway and properly trailer handling in general it is my belief that TW is less important st it plays a part in the working of the anti sway features in the Equal-i-zer hitch. This is because most of the anti sway is provided by the pivots in the hitch head. I'm not saying TW doesn't effect the anti sway or more properly sway mitigation it's just there is a significant component of it there that is not dependent on TW.
