When we bought our first travel trailer (a Jayco Whitehawk 29SQB) over 12 years ago our dealer, White Horse RV Center in Williamstown NJ, recommended that we install the Original Equal-i-zer Sway Control Hitch for a safe and optimal towing experience. White Horse is a terrific family-owned dealership that we have loved working with over the years and we trusted them immensely then (and still do now) so we spent the extra money on the Equal-i-zer–and we are so glad we did. Because what could be more important than keeping your family safe when you are traveling across American in your RV?
We towed that Whitehawk all over America and we never experienced a sway event–even in high winds–and even when surrounded by 18 wheelers on the interstate. The Equal-i-zer was reliable and durable in every way–and we always found it easy to hook up and easy to maintain. We owned that RV for 6 years and visited countless campgrounds and national parks across the country–and the Equal-i-zer was with us on every single trip. When we upgraded to a Jayco Octane Toy Hauler (circa 2018) we know we would keep using the Equal-i-zer on our journeys across the United States and Canada–and we purchased it again for that rig. That RV was heavier, and toy haulers can be more prone to sway, so we needed a weight upgrade to our Equal-i-zer set-up and White Horse took care of us once again with great service and professional installation.
After another two years of towing safely with the Equal-i-zer we were sold for life. We have used the Equal-i-zer on all of our full-sized travel trailers since then (including our Jayco Eagle and our Grand Design Imagine). It’s just a no-brainer for us at this point. We even inducted the Equal-i-zer into our RV Atlas gear hall of fame on our podcast a few years back!
We have learned to love and trust the Equal-i-zer for our towing needs for the following five reasons:
Five Reasons Why We Will Always Use the Original Equal-i-zer Sway Control Hitch
- The Original Equal-i-zer Sway Control Hitch is sold by MANY of the best RV dealerships in the country. If a great dealership with many years of experience (like White Horse or Colonial RV) chooses to sell a certain product when they have many options to choose from–then that speaks volumes about its quality.
- Equal-i-zer is a Utah based company that has been around for 80 years and has a great reputation for quality and customer service both within the industry and from consumers.
- This great product is made right here in the United States and purchasing it helps support American jobs.
- The Equal-i-zer is easy to hook up and it is very safe to hook up. We have hitched and unhitched our Equal-i-zer systems hundreds of times on four different RVs over the course of over 12 years and we have never had a problem.
- The Equal-i-zer System combines weight distribution and 4-point sway control. Both of which are essential for safe towing!

We have made incredible memories on our family RV trips all over North America and Canada. And thankfully we have never been in an accident and have always had safe towing experiences on each and every road trip. We credit much of this to safe driving habits and properly matching our trucks to our trailers–but we also give so much credit to the Original Equal-i-zer Sway Control Hitch. We have travelled so many miles together–and hopefully we are just getting started!
