True. But it is the way that the Equal-I-Zer does it that matters. I am sure this also stands true for the Reese Dual Cam.

The standard W/D hitch with added on sway control(friction pads) is literally a freaking brake pad that you tighten to increase the amount of friction created. You have to buy it seperately, and it comes only set up for one side. So some people end up buying two, for a system that is still flawed.

Best bet, returning the entry one and get the credit towrds a Real Sway control hitch.
