Towing a trailer can be a very harrowing experience. Trailer sway, a condition where the trailer oscillates behind the tow vehicle, is the cause of many uneasy trips while towing a trailer. Changes in road conditions, weather conditions or traffic patterns can start the trailer to sway and attempt to overtake the tow vehicle. Proper equipment is essential to eliminating the possibility of sway.You can go a long way toward controlling trailer sway with the proper hitch set up. Your choice of trailer hitch may be the most important decision you make in towing safely.

Conventional sway control hitches can be used to damp sway through friction forces. These hitches use the friction force to work against the sway force of the trailer. When the trailer begins to move side to side on the ball the hitch will damp that movement by applying a counteracting force to the movement. While many people use this style of hitch it is important to note that the friction force will not always be great enough to overcome the sway force and the trailer can still sway.

A pivot point projection hitch eliminates trailer sway before it begins. This style of sway control trailer hitch projects the effective pivot point of the trailer to near the rear axle of the tow vehicle. By projecting the pivot point the trailer works in tandem with the tow vehicle’s rear axle and does not begin to oscillate when towing conditions change. Many people towing fifth wheel or gooseneck trailers are familiar with the stability that the forward pivot point provides. A pivot point projection hitch provides this same stability for a standard trailer.
