No but it's easier.

not so. on a slower turn the anti sway disengages and you turn normal. Unless Im not understanding what you're saying? I've had zero issues with tight turns. Its just as good if not better then my old Reese WD with anti-sway

sorry I meant, old trailer had old style hitch. New trailer has the Recurve. So i can't say new trailer would tow with old style. Still the trailer from GM Trucks ๐Ÿ™‚

havent towed all winter, but overall I really like it. I wish I could compare it to another hitch, but I went to a larger trailer.


Bigger trailer??? Not what is posted on the GM-Truck site??? If so, missed your post.

What did you get?

Do you feel like you should have bought a power tongue jack sooner??? Lol They are the best thing since sliced bred!!!

handles it well. You can unlock the anti sway so it lets it turn easier. Ive noticed no bracket walk.

How does the recurve handle steep driveways or twisting? My Equalizer brackets would always bind and then walk on the frame.

Rosco,

Glad to hear your happy with the set up so far!!!! Keep updating this thread as you get more miles with it.

Somehow I missed your post here.

Now go get a power tongue Jack and you will love it even more!!! Lol I had an Atwood 4k robofoot model on our last trailer and was very happy with it. Hoping the factory jack Jayco installs is as good....

Have a fun and safe trip this w/e!!!
