Topic: Good and Bad about Blue Ox Sway Pro

Posted By: camperforlife on 09/20/16 12:22pm

You do need to weigh the tongue. My dealer swore that the 1000 lbs bars were more than enough. They were not as my actual tongue weight was 1350 lbs. Blue Ox worked with me to get the right bars and it made a major difference and yes the rig tows much better with the factory traction/sway control turned off.

Did the GMC have LT tires and does the Ford have P rated tires? Are the tires low profile? How about when you get all the weights a picture of the entire rig? I hope you get it all sorted out.

I have been happy with the performance of the Blue Ox Sway Pro with my set up. Had and Equalizer in the past and was happy with it as well except for all the noise when turning. The Blue Ox has served my set up well. My truck squats just a little when hooked up and, sway has not been an issue at all and......I am towing with one of those aluminum trucks that many say are to lite to tow. I have said before that every situation is unique and what works for one person may not work for another. I would not hesitate to by another Sway Pro if I had the need.

I've towed close to 5000 miles with my Sway Pro this year and really like it. This is my first TT or WDH hitch so I have nothing to compare it to. But with my truck and 38ft TT, its great. No sway and easy to hook and unhook.
