Default COBRA Anti-Sway Coupler

Thread Drift on RAS, who would've thunk.

Solid advice from Mark Mocho. I've towed a lot of mostly new-ish Cobra trailers around the country at Speed Limit+5 but never more than 80 MPH (I'm looking at you Texas and Utah). None of them that I recall had the anti-sway coupler and none of them ever showed the slightest tendency to sway behind my 3.6L Subaru Outback.

I talked briefly with Keith Essex last year about his experiences towing his ASH
32Mi behind a smallish SUV. He said the Cobra coupler made the combination steady.
That's a two-seater, of course, so a more difficult task, but it shows it works.
Your car/combination may or not need the assistance of the coupler.
