Best stabilizer help needed

I have a new 31 ft. Rock-Wood and need to get the shaking under control when parked. My wife has a really bad temper when woke up in the early morning:S. There are so many products on the markets I'm not sure what works the best. I have a Side Winder king pin so I don't think a front tri-pod stabilizer will work. Maybe Wheel Locks?

I do have electric landing gear on the back it helps but its not great.

Thanks

    Are you using the BAL type between-the-wheel chocks? They help noticeably. JT Strongarms seem to have the best reviews, I have not tried them because our 5th wheel is very stable without LG braces. Also, when you drop the rear stabilizers, do you get them really cranked down? I bring my front LG slightly nose high and then crank the rears hard to make it level. Maybe that's why they call your model a "Rock-Wood".... just kidding...

    Forget the king pin tripod. Go with JT Strongarm or one of the other similar stabilizers for the front and rear.
    We have JTs and they work great.


    Another vote fot JTs, they just work.
