Anyone has experience towing a trailer with a car with the trailer sway mitigation installed?


Reduce the polar moment of inertia of the trailer - remove mass from the back end of the trailer. Here is a really effective video to describe the problem and its solution:

You would be surprised how small additions of mass near the back of the trailer can cause big problems.
