I have a 3500RL. To prevent the rocking, on the front I use the pin tripod. I raise 5r to about a ¼ bubble off, then hand tighten the tripod as much as I can. Then I lower front of the 5th wheel until it is nice and tight on the tripod and as close to center bubble as I can.
Then I crank down the rear stabilizers and much as I can. I still get rocking and the front door doesn’t seem to want to close as easy as it usually does. Is there a better way? Should I also be using chocks between the tires?
Thanks for all the help.
