    I bought the recurve r3 and attempted to install them on my Honda passport 23 to the tab 400.  The bars where too long and the setup did not seem to work.  They are being sent back to Amazon tomorrow

    I just went to harbour freight and bought their $28 anti sway bar.  

    I towed the tab with my passport this weekend with no sway bar or weight distribution hitch.  It seemed ok but I kept it under 68mph.  Trailer and vehicle did not seem to have any sag in the middle however I was lightly loaded 

    I have also learned since purchasing my passport, (specifically because I needed a vehicle to tow the tab) that it will need a transmission cooler to tow more than 3500lbs.  That's an extra expense I didn't consider

    I like Fastway E2 400 or 600 lb hitch.  The 600 will require modification to the Boondock platform if equipped with one.

    Had our t@b 400 bdl since 2019 with some very long trips (months) and prepping now for another four month one to AK.  Use a standard hitch, a one arm sway bar, and keep the tongue weight below the factory recommendation.

    No need to modify the platform on this 400.

    This video referenced in 2019 above is very relevant as this post continues.
