Thanks for the feedback.

I recall my folks had something with the chains back in the late 60s when they had a 31 foot (?) Holiday Rambler TT. They pulled it with a Plymouth wagon (try that these days!) but I can see something was not properly adjusted due to the way the car is riding low in the back.

I didn't have any WDH/anti-sway for the 19 foot Premier (it wasn't recommended by the dealer, and not knowing any better at the time I didn't question it; fortunately the curb weight of our TV was more than the GVWR of the TT which I think helped - I never had an issue), but when we moved up to the longer, slightly heavier TT I wanted something, and the e2 is what was offered.

So far I have not had any issues. But as I mentioned, it's nice to be educated before you make the next move up (whenever that might be); I envision an Equalizer sometime in my future.

We had a 72 ford station wagon back in the early nineties for towing our 33' prowler so your picture brings back some memories. Used it just for those one day move outs we had to do every 6 months. Towed a utility trailer with my Buick regal back then too and I remember almost loosing it a few times as it was whipping around like a tail on a dog. Lucky we didn't flip over and get killed.
