I know I'm gonna get flamed by all the towing experts , 2004 F150, 1840 payload ,13500 GCVWR, 8400 tow capacity, bilstien shocks, trailer has 6200 gvwr (it weights 5500) the TT has spread axles, when I was using the friction sway control it was a white knuckle ride for 100 miles ,the next day I forgot to hook up the friction sway , in fact I left it in the bed of the truck, I was pulling into a 25 mph head /crosswind and rain , the TT was moving around, no sway but it was following the ruts in the road but it was not affecting the truck at all , it behaved and stayed behind like it is supposed to, since then the friction sway has been in the storage building , before you tell me a semi will blow me off the road , the TT moves about 6 inches or less when one passes
