Stable-lift ?

I read the OP's post carefully. The OP was concerned with the 'wobbly jacks" on uneven ground. I don't see how a Stable Lift would help with that, especially if the ground is uneven or sloped.

This is difficult for me to explain with the keyboard, but I will try. With independent jacks, three or four, each has clearance that is not tied to the other jacks. With the Stable Lift, typically three jacks and two guides, the clearence is connected to the three jacks and two guides through the connection to the TC and the lower hoop. The clearence is also stabilized with the use of the three struts from the hoop to the TC. I think this is where the idea of the Wobble Stopper came from.

This is not an issue with the Stable Lift. I always left my TC at the height required to remove it from my truck. There were times I lowered it to make the steps more comfortable. The height of the lift is more stable than independent jacks even at maximum height, especially with the three struts.

I'm not negative or positive, I just don't understand the OP's post, which is why I commented confused.

I am comfortable responding to questions to help clear confusion or add to someones knowledge base. That is how I perceived your questions.

I referred to the three pieces that go from the hoop to the TC as struts. They could be reférred to as braces. I remember what Stable Lift calls them.

I also must say I am in no way connected to Stable Lift. I paid full price for mine and installed it myself. I had two phone conversations with Mont Peters during my install process. I cannot imagine the Stable Lift being for everyone and believe that is true with any of the jacks available. I have probably put the Stable Lift through more test that anyone. I am will versed on its limitations, some of which I would not try to explain with a keyboard. If installed properly, the Stable Lift is a very good product. Do expect to add 400 pounds to your TC.
