When stopped for an extended period of time, what method/devices do you recommend to stop the movement of the rig when moving around inside. Assuming the landing gear is down and the rear stabilizers are deployed correctly. We still experience annoying rocking motion while moving around inside the rig. Thanks


This topic, comes up often and if you did a search for JT's and PlugItRight you will get hours of reading.

Net is, there are now several companies offering stabilization for 5ers, TT's etc...some are similar some are not.

The idea and principle are the same, make firm the landing gear and jacks and you will get a very sturdy rig.
