Kingpin Stabilizer

I have a stabilizer that I bought when we had a Montana fifth wheel. It appears to me that it will not work with the Trailair on our Redwood. Is anyone using one to any advantage?

Don't think you really need it with the auto level system.

This has been discussed several times on this forum and I would add it could be a personal choice. If you think it helps you, then use one. I would say an overwhelming percentage of our owners who have commented on it have elected to not use one.

What Jim said...
And I would add that keeping the stroke length as short as possible helps tremendously with stability.

Unless you let the air out of the bag on the TrailAir, a KingPin Support won't do much.

The best stabilizing system I have used on mine are steadyfast stabilizers.they take 90% of the movement out. 3 wing nuts to tighten or loosen when using the Jack's. Go to steadyfast stabilizers. Com

I second the Steadyfast Stabilizers, excellent product that works very good.
