Adjusting Friction Sway Control
I just replaced my bargain basement friction sway control with a Reese friction sway control. What is your technique for adjusting the tension on your friction sway control bar?

If you're talking about the side mount sway bar, I just tighten mine till it feels tight. If it it's blowin' over 20 knots, I give it an extra half or full turn. Just be sure you disconnect when backing up with tight turns.
