FES can happen even in a Rear bed model, so it has nothing to do with a front storage compartment. I know numerous people who have had FES with no storage compartment.
Can you say if this helps with trailer sway? I have a 12klb 34’ TT that I need a hitch to help with sway. Have a f350 srw which is rated for way more than the camper. Thx
@@wodwagon2056 I can give you my opinion and some facts. Fact: your trailer should be level when attatched to the hitch. If it can't be perfectly level it should favor a nose down direction. Fact: There is no indication that this hitch should help control trailer sway. Fact: Before I bought this hitch I did have a slight amount of occasional trailer sway. Usually while driving through a long curve on the highway. For some reason that almost completely went away after installing this hitch. There are anti sway bar assemblies that can be purchased and installed and there job is to control trailer sway. I've never used them and I have no experience with them. My truck is a dodge 3500 . It is a dually. From my perspective , based on conversations I've had with various people over the years. It appears that the trucks today that have coil springs in the rear rather than leaf springs. It appears that they struggle more with trailer sway issues due to the squishy nature of a partially loaded coil spring. That's a theory and I can't validate it other than to say it's been a topic of conversation. Something to note maybe. But, not like you can do anything about it other than maybe consider an anti sway kit. Sorry I dont have a solid answer for your question. Goodluck on your journey and thanks for reaching out.

@ thanks. I am spot on level. I have the Andersen WDH and felt like it has done nothing to help. I may bite the bullet and buy the ProPride. This hitch looks like it would work well for a smooth ride though. Thx
I've had mine since 2017 it works great. Takes that white knuckle driving away all together. Makes driving on long trips a dream.
Glad I finally got to see the interior of your camper!
That hitch looks like an Engineering Marvel! Very well thought out and it solved your problem.
I am glad I saw this video. Thanks.
@@737mechanic I'm glad you saw this video as well. You need this hitch, you'll be glad you bought it. Thanks for watching!

Can you open your tailgate with that hitch without hitting the jack stand?
@@shepardsonp yes. With that hitch installed I can. Without it, my tailgate will hit the jack
