Jayco Whitehawk ultra lite 24 ft

We're in our first year of use on a White Hawk 27DSRB. Shaking was very much a problem for us, too. Previous TT was a JayFlight 24RKS, cured the shakes with Eliminator Strut Stabilizers. Just installed same Strut Stabilizers on the White Hawk, with satisfactory results again. To make it even sweeter, the Eliminator Strut Stabilizers are now on an Internet-only special at Camping World.com!!!

I don't think the X-chocks will work on the White Hawk, due to the widespread axle placement.

We all assume you have your stabilizers down, right? My trailer did the same thing. There are several causes to up and down and front to back rocking. For front to back movement, X-Chocks will take care of that. For up and down, you need to see where the motion is coming from. It can be coming form the tires, even. My trailer is 35 ft with stabilzers at each corner. The best fix I've found is a small scissor jack in the center of one of the axles to stop the up and down motion. I still get a little and might later add X-Chocks for the front to back rocking.

Sorry to hear about your problems but you just answered my question for me.

First I don't have an RV yet so those that do will be able to help with how to stabilize it the best but I can explain the why.

We are looking at either the Jay Flight or the White Hawk. The dealer didn't have a White Hawk in stock but had a used 2011 Jay Feather on the lot that had the same floor plan.

First both trailers are level and neither have their stabilizer jacks down. When walking in the Jay Flight that thing was solid. If there was any movement we didn't notice it. With the Jay Feather every step made the trailer bounce. Like you noted the wife was feeling a little sick when she was at the rear of the trailer and the sales rep and I were moving around up front.

Here is what I was told. The White Hawk will be a little better then the Jay Feather but not as solid as the Jay Flight. The reason being is the size tires (14" vs 15")the axles (3000lb vs 3500 lb each) and the suspension.

I was told that once the stabilizer jacks were down the movement would be minimal on both trailers. I questioned to myself on how much movement you would notice and your post confirms there is still the bounce. Looks like we will be going with the Jay Flight.

If this helps you or not I'm not sure but at least you know why it's bouncing the way it is.

A few suggestions that may help.

Make sure your stabilizers are all the way down and check them daily. Mine seem to loosen up a bit over time.

Get a pair of X-chocks or wheel Stops, which will help lock the tires and keep them from moving around. Not to be confused with the chocks you use to keep the trailer from rolling away though. I've got the Camco ones and had to modify them to work with my close together wheels.

Get a set of 4 screw type jack stands or a scissor trailer jack and place them to help support the trailer. I've got a scissor jack that I put under the rail just to the right of the step into the trailer. It's not big enough to lift it for a tire change but it helps cut down on the rocking when people go in/out.
