We recently bought another trailer and I decided to make a storage area for our sway bars.
On our last trailer we had something similar I had made and enjoyed having a place to store them rather than the back of our truck or garage.
Here's how I made our Equalizer 4-point Sway Control & Weight Distribution Hitch Sway Bar Storage Tubes. I'll show you how I did it step by step.

NOTE: Links to the products I used, videos mentioned are located below, and much more.
