Sway Controller ? for longtime towers
When we bought our first TT about 5 years ago, we were warned during our walk-through that we should always remove the sway bar prior to backing with the trailer. Even if we were backing just a little...

On my first TT we had a Reese system and had the friction sway bar attached. The dealer told us never to back with it on. The reason was because backing could break the small ball on the hitch. Actually, the ball itself would not break, but the hitch itself where the ball is attached would break out the metal. All it took was one time for the bar to bind and that would have been the end of the hitch.
We never backed with it on, never, not even a few feet on a flat straight surface. Never. I always removed it.
There may be other reasons, but this is what the dealer told us. A year go I switched to an Equal-i-zer. I can back up with it on.
