Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I installed the Draw-Tite dual cam system in August 2010 on our 31' Coachman Chapparal Lite travel trailer, weighing 7400# loaded, and took the trailer on 2 trips totaling 1200 miles, towing it with a 2001 Silverado 1500 with 5.3 liter V8. The Draw-Tite Dual Cam and Reese Dual Cam systems are identical, and both are respected manufacturers and part of Towing Products, Inc.
In all situations, speeds, and terrains, and cross-winds, this dual cam system eliminated virtually all sway and most of the "push-pull" caused by big rigs passing us. Even at 75 mph on downhill curves (usually the worst situation for sway), I was able to maintain full control with no sway or "white knuckling". The dual cam system stops sway before it can begin, whereas other systems can only react after sway has become somewhat noticeable. It's also one of the very few sway controls that doesn't interfere with sharp turns and backing maneuvers.
Installation is fussy, and you should download the installation instructions from the Reese/Drawtite website before ordering this. It requires boring four 7/16" holes in the trailer A-frame at precise locations to mount the brackets that hold the dual cam assemblies. All required hardware is included, but you should have a 150# torque wrench and, a 1/2" electric drill, and a decent 1/2" ratchet set. It also requires some patience in making the final adjustments, but once done, hooking up the spring bars also hooks up the sway control. Unless you change tow vehicles or make major changes to the trailer load, it's unlikely you'll ever need to re-adjust the dual cam system.
