Steady fast stabilizer system

A few weeks ago I purchased the steady fast stabilizer system. We have a 2017 Montana 3791 Rd. I installed the stabilizers myself in about 2 hours. I can only say great things about these. They took 95% of the movement out of our fifth wheel. A little pricey but they really work. If you are thinking about them, go ahead as they are worth it. I have no connection to this company but there product does what is says it does.

Had them on our old TT and they were wonderful. Got JTs at a rally a few years ago when on a really good sale and they work the same. Doesn't really matter which brand.

Interesting, When I bought our 2955RL it had Stablelizers on the front landing gear. Looks like an X when I lower the landing gear I tighten the bars, and it really helps. This our 4th 5th wheel, but these are a first for us. We really like them.

JTs on ours. And yes, those type stabilizers do work as advertised.

Doesn't your 2017 Montana have the Lippert 6 point hydraulic leveling system? Using that system our 2012 is ROCK SOLID with our any add-ons.

Yes it does have the lippert 6 point level up system. The trailer was pretty stable with this alone but much better with the steady fast system installed. Again the JT system may be just as good as the steadyfast but I have never used that system.

I agree with Leyland ... even if you do have the Lippert Level Up ... the addition of Steadyfast or JT's improves on a good setup. The issue with the Level Up is ... if you are on a site that requires you to have the cylinders extended near full stroke ... you do experience quite a bit of wobble. Yeah, I know ... stack some wood to shorten the stroke, but that defeats a selling point of Level Up of not hauling around as many wood blocks anymore.
