The bar only, non chain types usually have anti-sway built in, no need for external anti-sway units. No need to remove anti-sway bars when backing up.
Equalizer sells a plastic pad for the spring bars to rest on, cutting the screaching significantly..
Recommend taking your TT GVWR times 10% and 15%. Get bars within that range.
To repeat an oft posted story. With full FW tank (accidentally left full) my 3877# GVWR TT tongue weight was about 680# by Haulgauge last fall. My spring bars are 400-600# rated. So a little stronger than anticipated need is not a bad thing.
