After I started using a lunette ring type coupling, there is nothing
in the world that could return me to a ball coupling, ever.

Is a lunette ring type coupling compatible with a sway control? I started
running my 7 X 16 7000lb cargo trailer with a Equalizer brand sway control
after a guy I had diving my pickup and trailer lost control on I 29 just
north of St Jo.Missouri. One hell of a ride that was. The trailer swayed a
little and instead of slowing down he tried to steer out of it. We ended up
jackknifed on an overpass with three of the four trailer wheels bent. Three
Missouri Highway patrolman returning from a class stopped and helped get
things straightened out and escorted us to a Menards where I bought new
tires and wheels. I repaired the trailer nose when I got home and installed
a sway control before the next trip. My truck still has flat spotted tires
and they have so much tread I hate to replace them. I have seen more than
one bumper pull trailer in the ditch when it took the tow vehicle for a
ride. Semis speeding past are one of the biggest causes for loss of control.
Now my rig barely wiggles in that situation.
