Every now and then I see a 5th wheeler with a tripod under the pin, apparently for added support. Does this really do anything? The trailer sits on the wheels, the landing gear and the rear levelers?
WOW! After ten years with a fifth wheel, I had come to believe that I should get a tripod because it seemed most other 5ers used them. I never bothered to ask anyone. I use X chocks and they do the job. I just thought I may be missing something but apparently, I can save my money. Good news, thanks everyone!
