I still had some sway with a Propride finally got it solved

I have an Airstream 30 Classic and for a while had a Propride. It actually towed worse with the PP than with Dual Cam i originally had. I fiddled with the hitch for 8 months before going back to the Dual Cam. I gave the PP to a friend of mine who has a 2016 308BHS and he had the same problem. We finally tracked it down to the slack in the 2" receiver. The problem was solved by welding on the top of the front and the bottom at the rear and grinding it flat to take up the slack. We also replaced the hitch pin with a 5/8 grade 8 bolt and tightened it up with the breaker bar that comes with the hitch. This took the slack out and made the trailer tow great. Here are a couple of pictures of the modifications.
