Acceptable amount of sway?
Okay, I'm a newbie to RV trailers. I've been pulling my Jeep on a flatbed for years, which is about 5000lbs combined. I've done this with no load leveling hitch or sway control, and it is very stable.
Last week, I bought this:
out in Colorado and drove back yesterday. I have a load leveling hitch with it and a sway brake. It is a 22ft toy hauler. It weighs about 4000lbs empty. I was disappointed at the amount of sway when there was a good cross wind, and I felt every car that passed me, as they would suck me in and then push me back out.
Is this just par for the course on a bumper pull of this size and height? I wonder when I put my Jeep in it, adding another 3500-4000 lbs if it will be more stable with more weight, or worse as it will have more weight to push the truck around.
