I looks to me that the upper support is into the lower portion of the 5er over hang, I personally would prefer to mount one side to the lower leg and the other to the metal frame. I do not want to put holes in the underside of the 5er overhang. OR AM I SEE THE WRONG THING Ed
Ed, I can't quite picture what you describe. The stabilizers attach to the bottom of the jack and to the underside between the jacks. My RV had a metal bottom there because it was prepped for a generator. My friend's 5er that we did yesterday had 3/4" wood there. The upper ends attach under the floor of the front storage or generator compartments. My battery is in that compartment also.
There may be a crossmember that you could attach to if needed. The upper ends of the stabilizers can be attached several inches off the centerline between the two jacks. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the response that what I wanted to know. ED
