I got it at the dealer I bought the A122 from. I deliberately selected a dealer based somewhat on price, but also on a package deal including prepping my Hyundai Entourage minivan. Having burned up a transmission in a Ford Windstar towing a U-Haul, and having had the sway issues above 60MPH with the Ford Explorer, I am/was paranoid, especially given the lack of towing information available from Hyundai.
I budgeted in a transmission cooler, installed, for $250. When the mechanic saw the existing transmission cooler, he said you just don't need it. The factory cooler was twice the size of what he was going to add.
The dealer said let's start without WDH and anti-sway, since the tongue weight was advertised at 213 lbs empty.
When the work was completed, I test drove the rig around the dealer lot. I was very unhappy with the "bounce" of both the Entourage and the camper. Dealer suggested the Equal-i-zer 600/6000. I agreed and the mechanic installed and set up the hitch. The LP tank frame had to be raised a couple of inches to make room for the brackets for the WDH bars. For whatever reason - possibly keeping me all day for the delivery - the dealer asked me to add $100 cash to the deal, instead of subtracting out the $250 for the transmission cooler. I thought that was a pretty good deal, getting the WDH installed for $350.
Drove home, hit 75 MPH where legal on the interstate - no sway, no bounce, minivan rode pretty close to normal. A very happy camper.
