Jt Strong Arms or Steady Fast

I think I am going to make a set of the steady fast stabilizers, they are a pretty simple design. The only thing is I won't make the feet they use, I'll just bolt mine to the landing gear legs with heim joints. I figured up the materials and can do it for under $100 that's even with the nice turn handles they use to lock everything down.

I installed my Steadyfasts this morning. Took about 2 1/2 hours. Now that I did it once, I could do it again in an hour. There are a lot of pieces and parts, but once I figured it out it was easy.

I only did the fronts. Will do the rears if needed.

A quick preliminary test shows that the Steadyfast will work as expected.

Either one will do what you want it to do. Just in a little different setup. I have WinfieldRV stabilizers on mine and in conjunction with the BalChocks, I have a motion free camper. It is a personal choice just like your choice in trucks and rvs..

Bill Gehr who writes reviews in trailer life tried them both and preferred the Steadyfast. From his recommendation that is what I bought. It is what he personally uses now on his 5th wheel. Truthfully they are both fine, but with the Steadyfast you only have to tighen 3 LARGE easy to reach wing nuts! All being equal that is reason enough to go with Steadyfast.

I had JT's on my first 5er and I have SteadyFast on my current one. I believe the results are about the same. The SteadyFast were a easier install and easier to use. SteadyFast customer service is great. Just my .02.

This is the type of info I'm looking for. Thank You

They are the exact same thing. One uses six locking mechanisms the other uses three.

JT's work great for us, we love them. :)

JTs work great for me.
