Steady Fast system
We love our Vilano and would like to increase the stability of the unit while parked. Does anyone have any experience with the Steady Fast system? We get movement when walking and when the washer goes into spin mode.
Are there any other options for stabilizing the trailer?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Keeping the jacks as short as possible by using blocks helps mine way more than the JT Strong Arm system that came on it.

I use the JT Strongarms, X Chocks, and rear stabilizer, plus added another rear stabilizer to just in front of the front axle, and entre steps that are adjustable with adjustable ground contact feet....rock solid...

I Installed the SteadyFast system and can report that it is an excellent choice for side to side and fore and aft movement. Cuts it down by 85% at least

Thanks for the responses.
Wood hip, did you install it or did you have someone else install? If you did the installation, how difficult was it?
Thanks again.

I installed myself. Fairly easy. Drilling into the frame is hard on my shoulders but got it done

X2 on both accounts.
Installed in on our former Carriage Cameo and removed it to install on the Lifestyle when we traded it.
System is well engineered and easy to use.

steady fast
I have a question will this system work on the rear scissor jacks that fold down? I have a Keystone Cougar 2019 RES.
Thanks in advance.

I have the Steadyfast on my rear scissor jack. I installed mine.
I have since upgraded to a 6pt hydraulic system & only use my Steadyfast if going to be setup for several days. We mounted the front jacks just behind the OEM jacks.

Nothing will eliminate the washer vibrations.
