Anyone use Wayne's rv stabilizers? Is two enough? It definitely seems like a good and less expensive alternative to some of the other stabilizing systems. Thanks

Do you have a link or more description of what it is?
Just found the site. Looks interesting...

I have the Wayne's Stabilizer that I use on our TT. It does minimize the "wiggle" movement of the trailer.
I bought ours on clearance at a local Wal-Mart for around $20. It sat on their shelf for almost a year.

I use two of them. One in front of the tires and the other behind. That stopped alot of the bouncing and movement in the trailer.

I also use 2. I put one directly under the entry door which is in front of the tires on the passenger side, and the second one on the opposite side behind the tires. I would say it eliminated about 80% of the movement. I am not sure you will eliminate 100% unless you put the TT up on blocks.

I use one across the back under the bumper. Huge improvement. We didn't have a problem with the 'bounce' up and down, but we had some 'side-to-side' what was rather bothersome. This stabilizer works well, is very lightweight, and easy to use.

They look like a great alternative to those JT's Strong Arm Stabilizers. I think they ran around $300 for a set.

One thing to keep in mind with the Wayne's Stabilizers is that they need a flat surface on the trailer to act upon. If you have gas lines below the frame or a spare tire mount on your bumper they won't work without shims.
BAL now makes their own version of the J.T. Strongarm stabilizers for a lot less money.
