And I’ll add, from the pics and descriptions of the first 2 gents that posted, conquering a Stable Lift seems to be out of your wheelhouse. Stick with the jacks.

I agree with both of you. The stable lift was something I had to have. No one could talk me out of it. For the most part it was a disaster of monumental proportions. I chose not to add my opinion because the op wanted info on cog. I have got pics galore of the damage the stable lift and the installer "me" did to my truck camper.

Sorry, man. Didn’t mean to dredge up bad memories. Lol
Being a TC person, I haven’t ever seen the value in them.
No good on unlevel or soft ground, costly to perform the same function that the jacks do, limitations or pitfalls (like supporting the camper under a slide out) are a few of the reasons.
But the biggest is I don’t understand how much more stable it could be than the usual sitting on 4 retracted jacks.
Spent a lot of nights with 4 of us in the camper, off the truck. Sometimes with a couple of jacks fairly extended on uneven ground. It was always pretty dang stable if lowered down or with a couple light duty ratchet straps as stabilizers.
Not to mention it’s obtrusive visually and physically and another appurtenance to consider due to reduced ground clearance and additional width.
