Best way to eliminate the camper shake.
I have the camper leveled and the stabalizers set, however there is still quite a bit of movement when walking around. Any suggestions without having to buy anything right now.

Have you tried an X-Chock? Stopped the front-to-back movement in ours. Still have a little side-to-side though.

Yes I have on in there. I'll put the other one on the other side. The one thing I don't like about the electric stabalizers is that I can never tell how tight they are. Our last TT had manual and I knew just how much to turn them.

I've got the electric stabilizers and I will let them go until the motor shuts off. With that and 2 x-chocks I get no movement.

I have the same issue as noted above with the electric stabilizers. I was used to the manual ones I could crank down.
Having said that, once the electric stabilizers touch down, how much can I drive them them or turn them manually with the crank?

I have an Alpine, and even with the front and rear electric stabilizers there is more movement than I want. I bought the JT Strongarm stabilizers and will install them tomorrow
let you know how it goes.
update: took about 2 hours to install the kit, pretty smooth install. the difference is night and day. These should be , and likely will be, future standard equipment. (Lippert bought these guys) . 90% of the benefit came from the front jacks, and I was tempted to leave the rears alone, but what the heck , I threw them on as well. Very happy with the result.

I bought the BAL lock arm stabilizers a couple of years ago. They make the 5er ROCK solid.
It amazes me that people buy the "big" name bars,when the BAL's are as good for less than half the cost.
