Trailer Sway Control
The trailer sway control can be a mechanical telescoping

link that can be installed between the hitch receiver and

the trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable fric-

tion associated with the telescoping motion to dampen

any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling.
If equipped, the electronic Trailer Sway Control (TSC)

recognizes a swaying trailer and automatically applies

individual wheel brakes and/or reduces engine power to

attempt to eliminate the trailer sway.

Weight-Carrying Hitch
A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue

weight, just as if it were luggage located at a hitch ball or

some other connecting point of the vehicle. These kinds

of hitches are the most popular on the market today and

they are commonly used to tow small and medium sized

trailers.
