![]() "HL Falbaum" wrote Not to belabor the point, but the two vehicles in my experiment were similar size, weight, overhang. The real difference was suspension stiffness. A soft '98 Chevrolet Tahoe, and a (about same year) Ford Expedition. The Ford had a stiffer suspension and more precise steering. The Chev was soft and more "loose", the sway always started at about 70mph. The Tahoe was replaced with a '03 Avalanche---stiffer suspension, tighter steering. Same trailer was then towed without sway at any speed. Interesting. In my case, a Chevy Citation vs a CJ, and the CJ certainly had the stiffer suspension, and it was worse. I think the tighness of the steering may be playing a bigger factor than we are giving it credit for. -- Jim in NC |
