Our Montana living room slide extends 38-1/4 inches. The rest are 36 inches or less.

So here is what Lippert customer service had to say:

"After talking to one of the senior slide-out techs I was told that although the stabilizers are not required for use with our system, customers are fine to use them if they want to. Just keep in mind that these stabilizers are not meant to lift the room---only to apply enough pressure for stabilization."

With that in mind, I would make a few recommendations if you do use them:

1. Let your rig settle overnight before using the stabilizers

2. Don't overtighten! Like the Lippert technician mentioned, it's only for stabilizing, not for lifting the slide.

I guess each of us has to make our own decision on whether or not it's a good idea to use the stabilizers. For myself, I think I'll continue to use them, but with care.
