Hi, just looking for some advise...
My mum has just sold her lorry (gutted) as she's not using it as much as she used to, and has put a deposit down on a brand new Ifor Williams HB511.
She had a HB510 10 years ago, and towed with a Daihatsu Four Track, but I know different 4x4s can give a different towing experience.
She does not drive fast, but will be taking it on the motorway behind a 2008 Landrover Discovery 3 manual - but in future may use my step dads Automatic Discovery 4.
The trailer company suggested she may want to try Anti Weave bars to reduce any swaying on the motorway, but was wondering whether there are any pros or cons to doing this.
Also posted in Competition Rider, but any feedback would be appreciated, as she's a little nervous as the neighbour rolled her and her other horse in an IW trailer on the motorway 5 years ago (all ok eventually, thankfully)
Edited to add: By these I'm referring to anti Sway bars that are attached to the towing vehicles chassis.
