Every now and then I see a 5th wheeler with a tripod under the pin, apparently for added support. Does this really do anything? The trailer sits on the wheels, the landing gear and the rear levelers?
I like my tripod when my rig is set up for a longer period of time on our private camp site in the country. I don't think it's worth the set up and take down for a week or less of camping. It shows considerable stability on our 33' 5er.
