Travel Trailer creaks and cracks when moving?

Are you using a weight distributing hitch with anti sway bars? If so that is what is probably creaking, mine has friction bars that rub metal on metal.

Yes, we are using a weight distribution hitch with anti-sway (friction bar).

Grease the trunion ends on the weight distribution bars.

We get a few cracks mostly when doing a sharp turn but its only the bars as previously mentioned. I rather have those few noises and the safety of the straightline hitch with the camlocks.

Mine creaks when turning (or I just notice it more then :)) From my experience it is normal and will always do it. If it stops turn around and go back to pick up your trailer :B JK.

LOL! Thanks for all the advice! Can't wait to get out and enjoy the outdoors!

Sounds pretty normal to me.

I lube all my suspension flex/pivot points once a year so my trailers suspension don't creak/pop/squeak/groan/etc.
Hitch noise and suspension noise is easily determined by letting some one drive the rig around a corner in the campground while you walk along beside the trailer.

Make sure you lube the short end of the spring bar that slide up into the WD head.

Ours makes a racket, especially at slow speeds. It is indeed the EQ hitch creaking and groaning, it is normal. I use the "Sway Bracket Jackets" on my Equalizer and it helps a bit.
