Anyone stop and remove their spring bars and friction sway bars at the park gates? Roads in the parks tend to be winding hilly paths where I don't go much faster than 1st gear. I have a Pro Series RB2 hitch (new to me this year) that says it does not allow backing up and a friction sway bar that ive always left on until at the site but really don't see an advantage to having at walking speed in the park.
whats everyone else doing?
I leave my WD bars in place at all times. Many hitch receivers are not rated to bear more than 500 lb without WD.
You can check to see if you need to remove your friction sway bar by slowly jackknifing your rig in each direction to see if the bar either bottoms out or touches the bumper or trailer frame. If not, you can just leave it hooked up.
