Which makes more impact on sway

I added a picture to "my profile"...this was the day I brought it home, no WD/anti-sway bars attached. It came home fine.

I think this spring I will hookup and go back to the scales to see exactly what my truck wt is, the camper weight, and the total wt. Someone suggested to get the tongue wt...don't I get that by driving up to the scales and just have my truck (while hooked) on the scale???

My goal should be: 10-15% of my trailer wt on the tongue...The heavier the better, provided I don't go over my truck's payload capacity.

I know to some, it may seem like I am asking the same question over and over again, but this is not intuitive to me and I want to make sure I can get a consistent set-up and know what factors need to be adjusted.

Francesca mentions ball-ht...when I did my setup on my WD hitch, I set it at the ht that made the trailer level...and adjusted the angle that best kept my truck level...I am not convinced my setup is perfect. With that said, it looks good.

I appreciate your thoughts and I would love to hear more! Thanks guys!

Hi,

A few questions, do you have air bags on the back of the truck?

You are declaring "looks good" and "truck level" for your indication of proper WD.

WD being set optimum does not really fit always to being truck level or looks good.

Tell us how you adjust the WD on the truck and what you go by and why.

What tire pressure do you run on the truck and what is max cold pressure on the tire?
