Hitch whining

[ssemalone]

On this trip the hitch started to whine, I tow a 23 foot TT with a chevy Tahoe and the hitch started whining and moaning on this trip especially when turning, but you can hear it on some bumpy areas in parks???? not sure what is going on I have a E2 round bar hitch with built in sway control, love the hitch works great easy to load and unload bars.. Just wondering about the whining and squealing

Mine used to do that until I greased it. After that ... quiet. The groaning and creaking comes back so best to carry grease around.

Yeah they tend to squeal if not properly lubed. Hitches also.

Sounds to me like the anti sway bar might be too tight and is making that noise. Loosen it just a bit. Actually the noise doesn't hurt anything unless it is a lack of grease on the equalizer bars.

When's the last the hitch setup was greased? Most such joints get pretty dusty and grease breaks down really fast.
