That alone made a huge difference. Later I added JT Strongarms to the 4 pt level and wiggle is 98% gone thank you, will try the blocks thing.. I felt perhaps we should have done that, but didntRe: Wiggle pcm1959 wrote: We have the SteadyFast system on our 38' Lifestyle. It is a great system and only 3 quick, easy knobs to turn to deploy. It does not remove 100% of the movement in the rear but in the front is just about does. I think you'd be pleased with the results. thank you.... I realize that nothing will do 100% but this feels like a swing..only in the back as you said..so anything will be nice.. ty againRe: Wigglefor those of you who actually gave me some ideas.. I thank you..we will look into the JT strongholds.. I read where they work with the 6 pt system.. I am one of those people extreme sensitivity to movement.. so appreciate what was said.. those of you who decided it was just a time to be a smart aleck.. go someplace else to do that.. I was asking an honest question, and was really hoping to get honest caring answers.. thank you to those that did just that.Re: WiggleWe already did tow it, and no problem. Others we have talked to who have basically the same weight issue and truck do just fine..from what they say. And this had nothing to do with what I was asking, nor is it based on your experience.. so again I am asking for those to respond that have had experience in solving this issue, to some degree,, they all wiggle to some degree.WiggleYep you read that right,, wiggle..we just got into our new big fifth wheel and find that it wiggles alot more than our little one did.. It has the 6 pt leveling system, but the back has the slide outs..so wondering if all of you owners have any ideas on how to get some of that out.. we tried extra jacks under that back, but that didnt help.. we are open to suggestions that have worked for you.. thank you..Re: cargo weightwell I do thank you all for your input.. but nothing you said, actually answered my question.. except for one.. we will weight our trailer empty, then load it, and weigh again.. nothing like having it on a piece of paper in writing to tell the truth.Re: cargo weightWe have a 2014 Diesel, 4x4 we believe from what we have figured out that we have about a 500 lb leeway, but who knows..Re: cargo weightWe have a dodge big horn 2500, with air bags.. short box.. bought a redwood 38 GK hoping to not overload,. I know we are on the edge.cargo weightHas anyone ever weighed how much cargo they carry in a full time rig? What is the average?Re: residential fridges.wow so many different ideas, wonderful to have some heads up,, Life is good,
