Sway Problem / Need Help
I am towing a 253RB Sunset Trail(30') with a F150 Ecoboost and am having a hard time with it if there is ANY wind at all. For the most part it tows ok on a calm day but if there is any wind at all it...

From the reviews I looked at I like the Equalizer. It's also a lower profile and my trailer is fairly low (the Reece dual cam does hang down a bit. Had one a few trailers ago)
Also according to the Equalizer website you only add behind the axle cargo weight? (I've always used all passengers and truck cargo)

Of the obsolete hitch types (non-Hensley patent) the original WDH is still the best. The Reese Dual Cam. (An Equalizer IS NOT in its class).
You have to read the replies above carefully as there is a difference between an equalizer hitch and an Equal-i-zer hitch. The equalizer hitch is a generic term used for describe the original round bar weight distribution hitch with no built-in sway control. In that sense Slowmover is correct that an equalizer hitch is not in the same class as a Reese dual cam.
The brand name "Equal-i-zer" hitch however is not just a standard equalizer hitch. The Equal-i-zer is in the same class as the Reese dual cam hitch and both incorporate built in sway control and weight distribution in the hitch.
Then there is the Hensley Arrow (HA) or the Propride hitches. These two hitches are in a league of their own and their price ~ $2000 reflects that.
