Sway control needed when pulling TT with DRW?
I am currently pulling a tongue-heavy travel trailer with a SRW/2500HD. If I upgrade to a DRW/3500HD, will I need to use sway control or weight distribution? Or will the higher payload and wide stance...

The gross trailer weight is close to 11,000 total with a TW of about 1650. The weight puts my 2500HD right at the GVW, front and rear axle weight OK.
What I really want to know, is what should I expect if I were to upgrade to a DRW/3500HD and would I still need to deal with sway control and weight distribution.
Thanks in advance! ParTimCmpr
Get out your magnifying glass and look for little tiny asterisks or footnotes you haven't noticed before? Article is a little bit dated but still applies IMO.
