We use the Winfield stabelizers. Simple install with no drilling with most applications.
I am a winfield dude also. Like them. Usually add roto's between the wheels also. - JIMNLINExplorer IIII use a BAL bipod stabilizer for just over 100 bucks online.
However a pin stabilizer can only stop side to side movement at the front of the trailer.
For side to side/up and down motion at the back of the trailer I use the BAL telescoping stabilizer.
I use adjustable chocks to eliminate fore and aft movement. I'm rock solid as I require.
The products mentioned go at the front and rear of the trailer and accomplish the same thing. - SteveBExplorerTo the OP, I have a 5000# capacity UltraFab kingpin stabilizer 19-950001 (Amazon $120) and extensions 19-950002. I got it to support the front end of my camper so I could put cribbing under the landing legs. Haven't used it camping yet but plan to soon.
- LantleyNomadSince the advent of JT strong arms and similar devices king pin tripods have become obsolete
- UppercrustExplorerGo with the jt strong arms, we like ours and not much movement, which is a good thing when someone like me suffers from motion sickness.
- Landroamer1ExplorerI had one also and got rid of it after installing Steadyfast
- gwcampExplorerbought mine at walmart on line 5000lbs works great

- magonzoExplorerI am one of the few that like the tripod. I was lucky enough to have a friend give me his when he traded his 5'er. He also gave me a Wayne's Stabilizer for the rear. Mine is rock solid now. I cannot argue that the JT's and the like are much easier and do a great job, but I will state that my set up is also solid.
- filrupmarkExplorerJT'S For sure. We love ours. King pin jacks get in the way and don't stop the shaking.
