    In Europe we have the Al-Ko Trailer Control (ATC) system available that does that automatically https://www.alko-tech.com/uk/al-ko-trailer-control-atc, the other thing we have is their Delta axle, where the axle's angles change under swinging load to help cancel the movement, ridged straight axles don't help when things start swinging. https://www.alko-tech.com/uk/al-ko-s...weight-chassis
