Wondering what weight anti sway bars we should purchase for our van.
The tare weight of the van is 1550kg, and towball weight 155kg.Size of the van is 20ft tandem axle.
Ive seen plenty of anti sway bars advertised but they are different weights, and no one seems to be able to set me straight.
Help please
Thanks

A 20ft tandem van with a tare of 1550 seems a bit light on. Have you actually weighed it? I believe that it's critical to 'get it right' when it comes to selecting and fitting towing equipment. The best advice is to consult the experts in that field. A great place to start is with Hayman Reese. They have stockists in all states. Check out this link Link Take your time, rely on what the experts tell you. Someone elses choices may not be suitable for your application - in fact they may have even made the poor choices.

I have a Lindon equalizer hitch, which is a weight distribution as
well as an anti sway system. The only trouble is you have to buy them from the states now as their is no on selling them in Australia.
I have towed the van with and without it on. It really makes a difference. you do not get blown all over the road when passed by a truck or bus.
Look up www.equalizerhitch.com
