Wobbly Two-post Table

I have a 2008 Summit tt that I just purchased and the dining table is
very unstable. It has two of the typical table posts so you can turn the dinette into a bed for short people. I'm not sure I want to permanently mount the table in the upright position, so the ideal would be to repair the posts. I saw upgraded posts at Camping World but the cost was a bit high. Any ideas?
  • One end is at the wall and I thought about adding a bracket to stabilize the table, but it has laminate construction and I'm not sure how to solidly attach anything to the walls. the folding legs sound like a good idea.
  • We had one of those on a Keystone Cougar. I bought another leg and each end from Camping World and turned my two-legger into a three-legger by adding the third leg in the back... triangle shape.
  • Same problem. We bought and attached a set of folding legs like you see on the bottom of the typical folding table. Attached them to the end of the table that is against the wall. Works well.
  • We ditched the twin pedestal pipes and mounts, and went with a set of folding table legs on ours.
  • Does the end of your table fit against the wall? We have a bracket that the end of ours fits in and I assume is what holds it without wobbling.
