Wondering if these new 6 Pt. Leveling systems make the 5er more stable? Can you lift the entire 5er off the ground? Do 5ers with this system still jiggle as a person walks around inside? Is there a down side to these systems?
Much depends upon the integrity (strength) of your frame. We have a 15 year old Bigfoot system , 4 legs (jacks) which can lift our 20+ K pound 5th wheel completely off the ground, and is quite stable. Our 5er has been parked in our barn since December, and is still level! The more you extend the jacks, the more “jiggle” you will have. If we only level ours, with some weight still on the tires, you would have to be using a mini-trampoline to get much “jiggle”! We can run the washing machine and the dryer, and never hear or feel them! Again, a lot depends on the trailer frame, but the Bigfoot system is made in America with good components ( unless they’ve recently gone cheap), and historically has been a great system with good factory support.....if/when you need it!
