Towing

[Jetskier77]

What you are referring to as "sway bars" are not.. They are weight distribution
bars. If you are using 15K WDH (weight dist hitch) for a 6K trailer, you
prob will never get it in the sweet spot. You could sell that set and go to
a 7500 or 10,000 lb system and be way better off... Then you can decide
if you want to get a system that has the "sway" component built into it or
add it separately. Up to you on that.
I really like my set up as it has the sway and WD hitch all in one. But it was
pretty pricey.. I did the 10K system and it was like $700 a few years ago.
Equal-I-Zer is the name brand. American built.. Good stuff.
You order it by the tongue weight of your trailer. I expect the tonque weight
of your rig to around 600-800 lbs.

this is a link to the 1000/10,000 System. You can prob find one from a diff mfr
in the 800/8,000 for a bit cheaper. But I know this works.
My camper is 9500 lbs w 900 tongue weight going down the road.
I have made mods to accomodate this at it's way over the rating on my Yuk

You must be a thrillseeker. Thats got to be close to 2000 lbs over the recommended max for that vehicle.

Maybe so. But good knowledge of why the vehicle’s engineers set the towing parameters where they did, combined with good engineering knowledge and practice, can produce a modified vehicle capable of safely towing more than the original rated capacity.

Keep in mind that the same frame and powertrain components in a pickup are good for 3-4K more towing capacity and combined weight than they are in an SUV.

I've got the appropriate modification to tow this much. Not everything is in my signature !!! I wouldn't tow this heavy if I believed I was unsafe in any manner. Unfortunately
the plan was to travel more but life has gotten in the way.
I used to tow this travel trailer with my 94 C1500 pickup (highly modified) and the
Yukon is so much better handling due to it being about 2K heavier !!!
