Track bars vs sway bars vs stabizers. Please clarify

[suscamper]

As posted before we are considering moving back to a C from our A because of the issue with sway towing our car. We had a C but didn't tow and had no sway problem. Reading posts about Greyhawks riding nicely made us consider the move.
Now I'm reading recent posts about adding trackbars and sway bars to Greyhawk MVs that we are looking at. We added a Safe T Plus to our Class A and are going to add a rear stabilizer to it if we keep it. Don't want to pour more $ into it if we aren't keeping it

IF you tow with your C do you need both track and sway bars added to prevent sway? Do you put both on the front and back? What is the difference between them? Do you need both?

Will towing a car with a C be easier than the A? We are all decked out with upgrades to the new Precept (even added a ladder) so your wisdom will help us with this big $$$ decision

I tossed out my understanding of the two in the other thread. If you liken it to an airplane, the sway bar controlls "roll" and the trac bar controls"yaw".

I think a track bar is more commonly called a panhard rod.


To jump to a completely UNQUALIFIED guess, I'd guess that if you need anything while towing it would be a panhard rod (track bar) long before a sway bar.

Our 2016 Grayhawk MV29 tows our 2012 Honda Cr-v with out any sway just as it came from the factory . The J ride package includes a rear sway bar. We have towed the CR-V almost 10,000 so far . I can say that I hardly notice it is back there

The sway bars help with the body roll but it was the trac bar that really improved the feel while towing. It kept the car from pulling the rear end of the MH around. We added both and couldn't be happier.

I would add a trac bar to your class A and try towing before you loose a ton of money on trading. I would suspect a class c & gas class a to tow relatively similarly. If you really want to improve the experience you'll probably need to make the move to a diesel pusher.
