Husky Sway Control adjustment
A Husky Sway Control came with our used travel trailer, and the instructions leave a lot of unanswered questions .... or maybe I'm just overthinking it.
Anyway ....
The instructions just say to "tighten firmly until the handle is parallel with the main body." How tight is it supposed to be? The first time we used it, I heard a great groan of protest every time I made a turn. I loosened it one full turn to get it parallel again but looser, and I'd be surprised if it's doing anything at all.
I asked at Camper World last time we were out there, and the tech just said to tighten it down, and he showed me and put some pretty serious torque on it by hand. I drove it off the lot, and it protested loudly, so I stopped and loosened it again.
We've never had a problem even without it installed at all, but we've got it and would like to use it -- just in case.
