Had time to take pictures of some new mods.
I finally got around to removing the front scissor jacks and replacing them with another set of BAL "C" jacks. I also added BAL's stabilizer bars...
I then took two of the now spare scissor jacks and mounted them to the frame (with a spacer to clear some dump pipes) just in front of the axles...
This setup and really reduced unwanted trailer motions in all directions. There is hardly any yaw or bounce which makes me very happy when sleeping in!
I also decided to add a set of backup lights. I didn't want them all the way in the rear because I can't really see back there anyway. I placed them up front where they shine along the sides of the trailer and also show the wheels...
The beam pattern looks good in test but with the time change, I probably won't test these in real life until the fall.
Last but not least, I also finished my generator (and other stuff) racks. I posted these in a new thread since there is always a lot of interest in that sort of thing...
Rear bumper generator (and other stuff) rack
