Thanks Randy for that additional information. Eric, I stand corrected, the part number you gave me is correct. However, I simply need the top sway bracket not the complete side mount kit. I will call Wisco tomorrow to see if they would sell me just the top bracket.
Does anyone have a top sway bracket that they can offer me?
