Would it be possible to kill the sway by coupling the wheels together, like when using a diff lock?
If the wheels on both sides are forced to turn at the same speed that would kill the sway.
It better be unlocked in tight corners though to stop it from killing other things than sway.

EDIT never mind, wouldn't work. The trailer would resist changing direction, pulling the towing vehicle sideways thereby inducing rather than killing sway.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
