You need to get some actual weights on your rig to tell a few things, but just guessing off the cuff, it sounds like you might not have enough tongue weight.
So, lots of things it can be, or maybe you are just ultra sensitive?? To me, "sway" is when you are see sawing the steering wheel to gain control over the rig... If all that's happening is you feel a wiggle or a tug or pull from the trailer when conditions warrant, that's just what's happening at that time and may or may not be 'normal', but is not a condition that should cause an out of control situation either..
some good suggestions MitchF150 i do have the same thoughts on the instruments as you suggested (ie. anti sway bar, eq hitch, etc) the swaying is really just driving down the highway and if that speed creeps up around 65 the trailer just starts moving and i can feel it in the drive. i dont try to counter it but rather just slow down and it corrects itself.
but i am going to find the weight of the tongue. with e recliners only in the front and master bed and cupboards in the back there could definitely be a shift i need to do when loading it up. as suggested by everyone so far.
tnanks guys.
