I've read most all the post regarding the JT's and looked at the Equilizer at Camping World.I talked to the guy at JT's and he explained the diff. between the two.I currently use a tripod in the front and the Waynes stabilizer under the rear bumper(did'nt seem to work very well)Looks like most like the JT's the best for removing alot of the sway.I'm trying to eliminate some of the sway we get in the morning when the kids wake up in the rear and as soon as they move the 5er shakes all the way to the front.I think RV Wholesalers have the best price $299.00 shipped.

We purchased our JT stabilizers through RV Wholesalers. We, too, found that to be the lowest price, and they arrived within a week. We haven't been able to install them as it's still snowing in Belgrade MT.

Happy RVing

JT's stabilizers will do a great job eliminating that shake, rattle, and roll. In fact, I had to take down the "If the trailer's rocking, don't come knocking" sign!

I got mine from RV Wholesalers for $299. They shipped quick. I think it took me about 3 hours to install them. Removed the wiggle. I don't use or carry the tripod anymore.

You got that right, that is where I got mine and they work.

I love the JTs. Some here say that don't take ALL the movement out, but they did on mine. If you follow this it is rock solid. Level the coach, then lower the front about half an inch. Then set the rears, go up on the front until it's about half inch nose high, then set the fronts and lower it to level. That takes out any "slop" in the arms and it's solid.
