When trying to sleep if one of the kids moves the TT moves and I feel like I am on a boat! We have Jacks (old ones) and new tire chocks.Any recommendations on the best Jacks for better stabilization? anything else? It makes me feel a little sea sick....We have a 30ft Jayco 2008 Featherlight TT. Thank you!

To fix this means a lot of support points. I am not gonna make any recommendations on just how to fix it (plenty will be along shortly) but multiple support points is the key. At least 3 per side.

No matter what you do, your travel trailer will always have wiggle and shake in it. Thousands of posts and thousands of responses on these forums for this very same issue. The only real solution, that actually works, (and I've been inside campers that had these installed), are adding JT Strong Arm Jack Stabilizers to your existing jacks. These do work, but to be most effective, get 4 sets, one for each jack on your camper. Click here for more info.The only other solution to completely eliminate trailer shake is to remove the wheels and set the entire camper on solid blocks.

We have a 5th wheel and installed the JT Strong Arms. They have products for both travel trailer and 5th wheel applications. We have been extremely pleased with the results.do some research on prices shopping etc as there is a big flucuation in prices out there.

I have installed the JT Strongarms on 2 5th wheels I’ve owned and they are great! You won’t be disappointed if you install them.

We also have the Strongarms BUT as I have previously posted unless the rig is on a concrete pad there is still likely to have at least a little movement due to the flex in the ground.So the ultimate is remove the wheels and use cement blocks or RR ties on a concrete pad.
