I did a little investigation into the side to side motion problem with the Lippert electric stabilizing jacks. For the self adjusting part to adjust to uneven ground, the jack carriage has to slide back and forth. After the jacks are down and under pressure, movement in the trailer causes the trailer to rock back and forth on the carriage. Stopping this movement should solve the problem. I believe a set of JT Strongarms or similar might do the trick. I think I will order a set of the BAL brand ones to put on the rear jacks and see how it works. See the video attached. The jacks are under pressure, and my daughter is aggressively stepping on and off the rear steps. It is the trailer that is moving, not the screw jack assemblies.
