Re: 2022 dodge ram sway issues
Ok, I did take to the cat scale and trailer was 6900. I have the axle weights but I'll have to go home to get it. Truck is rated at 12750 like I mentioned whick seems to be more of the 50% range with drunk math. I'm well below axle gawr on both front and back. Total gross weight was 13000362Views0likes0Comments2022 dodge ram sway issues
I have a 2022 Ram 1500 etorque with a tow rating of 12750 lbs. Payload of 1840 lbs pulling a 28 bhss puma. Dry weight of 7513 lbs, hitch weight of 835 lbs. I'm using a recurve R3 hitch. After adjusting this hitch several times I still can't get the sway under control above 45 mph. The manufacturer said the vehicle sway dampening/ anti sway control needs to be off as it works against the hitch. My truck has this built in the the abs and no way to turn off. Took to the dealer and they can't figure out if there's a way to do it. The master mechanic there said he had a 32ft pulling with a 1500 ram and had the same issue. He removed the hitch and pulled with just a ball and said it pulled fine after that. Not seeing how this is a safe option but leading to believe it may be my only option. Reading on dodge forumns seems the control comes on at 40 mph which would make sense that I start having issues at 40. Anyone have suggestions. Neighbors have an equalizer they don't need anymore, would this be an option? Any help would be appreciated as the experts came seem to figure it out.5.1KViews0likes29Comments
