Although not even close to cheap, I would look at a Hensley hitch (www dot
Hensleymfg dot com) to eliminate the sway.  Their target market is large
cars pulling heavy trailers. Their demo unit is a Cadillac pulling a 10K
pound, tri-axle Airstream.  Might check ebay...

Trans cooler absolutely.  Maybe a trans temp gauge, too?
