JT Strong Arm Kit

[Riverman]

I'm tired of my TT bouncing and wiggling sideways and front to rear when someone walks in it, or especially when someone simply rolls over in the bed.

Is anything better than the JT Strong Arm kit for travel trailers?

Thanks

There's a thread here about stabilizing and it has a link to another thread for a DIY solution

I prefer a factory made kit, and thanks for the info.

The JT Strongarms will help a bunch but you're still gonna have a little wiggle every now and then because the trailer sits on tires. Remove the tires and block it up is the only solution to eliminate all rocking. Lol

I have two young children who never sit still. The JT Strongarms have been awesome. I also use two X-Chocks.

A question... why do they send 6 arms in the kit and not 8? Looks like to me the trailer would need two arms on each corner.

I wondered the same thing and do not have the answer. However, I can tell you that they perform as advertised.


I have found that once you engage them, if you ever so slightly back off your jacks (and I mean just a fraction) to add a little weight for the arms to support, the results are even better.

Last question... did you install the four arms in the front and two on the back corners, or how did you configure them? Thanks for your help.

I installed Steady Fast stabilizers, they work quite well.

Four on the front and two on the rear. The two on the rear are mounted to stop lateral movement.

I use bottle screw jack at the axial frames both sides.
