It is front to back where there is the majority of the movement, thus the design of the BAL Stabilizer Bars. Regardless, it is an ingenious design mod. I hate to be one to argue... But the Scissor jacks pivot side to side.. that is where a a vast majority of wiggles comes from. If you think about it, if you are on level ground, wheels chocked, you shouldn't get any forward/reverse movement. Aside from the tongue jack and the wheels, there isn't much to prevent the side/side wiggle as the scissor jacks are hinged and the more they are extended, the more they will allow side/side movement. His MOD is ingenious... I am pretty sure it works pretty well at further reducing wiggle.479Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012

Getting the old out shouldn't pose too much of an issue.. You'll just have to do it in pieces. Getting the new one in WILL be an issue. Most TT's are built from the inside out with exterior walls to be the last being put on.430Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012

Thanks, Elk the flexible hose pieces help to isolate the vibrations and absorb some of the water hammering effect. typically you will find your water pump piped directly into the stiffer PEX tubing. The vibrations will carry into the hose and vibrate against the floor or whatever it is resting on.387Views0likes0Comments
