Weight Distribution vs Sway Bars
I am told that some people have both a weight distribution hitch and a sway bar for their travel trailer; while others have told me that you only need one or the other. I just purchased a new trailer...

Some weight distribution systems like Equalizer also have sway control built into the design, some are simply weight distribution and you need to add on a sway control bar.
That said if you fishtail down the road then you have something fundamentally wrong and need to fix that BEFORE adding weight distribution/anti-sway as those systems should help with occasional problems like bow wake from a passing semi or a sudden gust, not try to correct for problems like too little tongue weight or overloaded rear axle tires.
