I had a problem last weekend towing the race boat to long island. First time i towed with the truck. The boat kept swayying going down the road. Boat was full of fuel. And have towed the boat behind a bunch of different ford trucks. And never this problem. Now coming home the boat towed good with an empty tank. What could it be?

too little toe-in on front end, Too little air in tires (or maybe too much) Wrong tires (are they stock?) Lifted truck? You clearly have a weight distribution problem. Likely it's too little tongue weight. That's aggreavating whatever is wrong with the truck. Sometimes you'll get sway with too much tongue weight but it's got to be extreme. Some trucks are more sensitive to rear squat than others (squat causes changes to your front end's steering geometry, moreso on IFS trucks) |

Is the 4th riding in the middle of the back seat or in the hatch? http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...ntitled-14.jpg |
