Just finnished a 10 day trip with the Blue Ox. It worked fine. We pulled about 1200 miles. It does as good in parking lots as it does on the highway. It is easy to hook up at most any angle and is very quiet. I am 10 times more satisfied with this than I was with the Equalizer. The only down side that I can see is the sway function. I think it gives some sway control but not to the degree that they advertize. When the trailer weighs 8,000 + I think the friction anti sway can only do so much. I have pulled the trailer without a load leveling hitch and it doesnt sway anyhow. I think having 6 wheels is the big difference there.

I hear what your saying but to be honest, I'm a little concerned that you are somewhat lukewarm on the sway control. From my standpoint the sway aspect is so important that any issue with the Equal-i-zer being noisy or its pins, etc. doesn't seem to justify a solution where you have some misgivings regarding the advertised sway control properties of your new hitch.
