Elec Lippert stabilizing jacks. How do YOU use yours...

I use mine as designed ... to stabilize the rig (i.e. remove large scale displacement from side too side / end) I set them down onto plastic pads then snug them up so that the trailer is lifted maybe 1".

There is still "wobble/shake" but no "tip over tendency". To get rid of any more movement you need a combination of X-chocks and vertical supports between the span of the stabilizers preferably in way of the axles.

Of course this type of question will again attract a lot of responses and hopefully by the end it will become clear. ;)

I use mine the same way as wmoses does. Lately I've been wondering if a pair of heavy duty bottle jacks under the frame behind the axles would help to alleviate some of the remaining wobble. Does anyone do this?
