I have the BlueOx SwayPro in my garage that I’ve been using but I hated it as it is cumbersome to set up as well as use.
Contemplating selling it.

I have a Recurve R3, with 1000# bars & adjustable sway ctrl.
The big thing on this hitch is that the load bars go over the top, and there's no chain system on them.
BTW - No slight intended toward other brands that do use chains on the bars, and I have no issues with them.
I got this one b/c the dealer used that brand. For now, it seems to work well. Ask me again after summer's over

Andersen. I got one when we got our new Grey Wolf 23MK last year. No comparison to the old WDH with bars and friction sway control. Great hitch.

Husky Centerline - Only way to go IMHO, but if a couple of hundred for new bars is too much, forget looking at this WDH. Good is good, but GREAT will cost you. However, new bars to chg weight loads for this are under a hundred. Mine is available if someone is interested, I have an Rv now.

Ran a Equalizer 4pt for 10 years and Blue Ox for 2. Loved them both. The Equalizer was a little quicker hook up and the Blue Ox is easier to adjust.

Where were able to find the 800-1200lb bars for that price? I am finding them for a little over $100 everywhere.

Our rv just come out from dealer lot last week. This is our very first one. The WDH is install and set up by dealer. It is a Husky center-lineTS, 600-800 lbs. I am not sure if that is good or not. We learn how to hitch and unhitch from the dealer. The dealer did mention that it is a 4-point setup, not exactly sure what that means though, still learning.
So far we practiced 3 times and the whole setup seems to be very stable.

Also have the Andersen. Only towed once with it so far but had 20+mph crosswinds. Stopped a few miles away from the dealer and tightened it up some more. It was the first one they'd installed and it took a bit of time for them to work it out. Their interpretation wasn't quite what I'd seen online. After getting the chains tighter the pull was a bit less of a challenge. Still got pushed around a bit, but it was definitely from the crosswind and it was manageable. Once the blizzard passes we'll get it over to the CAT scales and figure out the distribution numbers. So, I should know by May...

Wondering myself if it will be June. Watching it snow outside now with +30mph winds. Usually have mine uncovered and prepped for the season by now.

x3 on the Andersen... was easy to install, easy to load each time and definitely works both for weight distribution and anti sway.

4pt Equal-I-zer.
I don't like the idea of pulling rearward in order to try to achieve an upward load. It's very limiting. (Mathematicians, pun intended!)

Husky Center Line with the 800-1200 bars. Works great, never have had an issue with sway.

Have Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 14,000 lbs GTW, 1,400 lbs TW. Don't really use the weight distribution part. (don't need it). But the sway control works great, and easy to hook up. A little noisy on tight turns but that only tells me it is still there.

I’ve been using a Equalizer brand hitch for about 8 years now but it’s time to replace. I just placed a order for a basic Ez Lift round bar package.
