New owner many questions

Hi,
Just bought a 2017 passport 3290bhs. Have some questions. I will post them in the proper area. I have been in 1987 Jayco dual axle pop up. Now I upgraded.

Welcome. Nice upgrade!! Though for pop-ups the dual axle jayco is pretty nice, assuming you had one with an AC unit and such.

Smile New To Forum - 2017 Cougar TT 30RLI

Hello to all...the 4 corner stabilizers are rated at 2500#. If I increased the load range to 5000# will that help with removing some of the bounce? In addition, any recommendations as to which stabilizers are better than the rest? We pull "Sweet Dreams" with a 2014 F150 Echoboost short bed.
Thanks for your help...

Getting bigger stabilizer jacks will not change anything. Adding a set before or after your wheels will help. The bounce is because the weight is still on the suspension springs. You may also want to do a search on hear for BAL stabilizer or JT Strongarm. Those are popular too.

And welcome to the forum from Kansas City, MO! Glad you're here!
