Since I don't have the JT system, I can't compare. The plug-it-right system works just fine. It does what it is advertised to do. It is superior to any other stabilizing system I have used.

I saved that link to look at again when we get home. When we first set up, we are level and no bouncy bounce. After about a day and a half, we not level side to side and the bouncing is driving me nuts. We have a 100+ German Shepard and when he runs thru it's like we're on a bumpy road.

Rob I got my JTs before I ever heard about Plugitright. I paid $400 for the complete set at a local dealer(RV show price). As it turned out the dealer sold me the wrong kit - the "swingbolts" were too short for the rear stabilizers. I called JT and they sent me the right parts. I installed them myself. I've used them once on a ten day trip. They have taken out 90% of the movement that I had before without them. To me, they are definitely worth it. The are made of pretty stout steel pipe.

As for Plugitright, they appear to be the same style of stabilizer, just ligther weight material and about $110 cheaper.

We purchased and installed the JT stabilizers this weekend. WOW!!! They are wonderful! We paid just a bit over $400 and although I like to save money as much as anyone, they would be worth it at twice the price! Even when we had the kitchen blinds anchored at the bottom, if someone walked across the room you could hear them rattle before the installation. It is absolutely silent now. I would highly recommend them. We'll never park it without setting these up.

We bought the Jt's today. We have been looking at them for three years now and finally bit the bullet. The dealers are at the Escapades right now in Goshen. If anybody is coming to the rally and interested, I'm sure they would stick around awhile if you let me know. We paid $445.00 for them.

We have the Plug-it-Right on our 3400RL, second trip and love the setup.
Works great.

No Bill, they wanted another $100 to install them so we decided to do it ourselves. They did bring them to our Montana and went over everything with my Bill about the installation. They said that installing them on the Montana is a piece of cake. I noticed that in their photo's they had several Montana's that had installed them.

We had planned on waiting until we got to Florida to put them on but maybe you all could help at the rally so that you get the practice for your own.

I installed the plugit right system and it makes a big difference. I no longer lug around the kingpin stablizer....don't need it. I think the JT's give you a little bit better documentation on how to "load" the arms to stablize the rig. The instructions with the Plugit right were a little brief but got immediate response when I called and asked a question for clarificiation. They even called back several ours later to make sure the install went well and followed up with emails as well....Best I can tell both systems perform just as well. They are definately within $110 of each other so given the choice again I would save the $110 and get the plug it right....

Removed them from the old 2003 Big Sky and installed them on the 2008 Big Sky. It was the first mode to the new unit.
