slide out stabilizers
Does anyone use a stabilzer under the slide out when extended? Just wondering if this is something else I should buy. My slide is large and has the table and sofa so there is weight on it when in use....

Slideout stabilizers were popular when RV manufacturers first started making slideouts available. Technology has made their use unnecessary. Some posters may have TT's that are old enough to not have this technology that newer RV's use in the construction of slideout systems.
Yeah lots of really uneducated statements about the product and what its for and why their still sold. Lots of new folks I guess making guessing statements.
Early tip outs/slide outs weren't powered and were held (helped)in place with stabilizers furnished by the trailer mfg or the owner could buy his own. I didn't like the stabilizers furnished by my trailer mfg so I bought a set from my local mobilehome/RV parts store.
I wouldn't use them on a modern powered slideout that keeps the slide out pushed up against the opening.
