Steadyfast, and I did have to V notch the I beam for it to fit flush.

I'm just looking for the rear kit. I don't need the bracket for the sliding rack. I can't seem to find one Amazon (or elsewhere).

If you call Steadyfast they can put just a rear kit together for you.
Ask for Paul...

Thanks.
Any possible warranty issues with these stabilizers? It looks like you mount to the frame.

Not that I would know of, There are a lot of things drilled or screwed into the frame. Just make sure before you drill you check the inside for pipes or wires. You will need to take off some of the coroplast in order to feel or see on the inside of the frame. When I bought mine Paul from steadyfast said that because I was only using his rear system, he would not guarantee a no-movement. When the whole kit is installed they basically guarantee a big reduction in sway.

Also I would recommend buying a proper sized TAP for the bolts. The self-tapping kind will only get you so far. The kit will come with a special sized drill bit.

The short answer is yes. anytime you add to or modify the trailer frame you are in danger of voiding your warranty. Just adding a hitch for a bike rack to your bumper can be enough to void your warranty. This recently happened to a couple in the latest trailer life magazine. The only way to know for sure is to contact Keystone and ask. If something goes wrong and they have a way out to not pay for it, they will take it.

Well if you look at it from that point, any modifications to the trailer would void the warranty. Drill a hook to the wall to hang a picture and you voided the structural warranty... But like you said, check with Keystone.
