Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Stability with BAL 23216 Lock-Arm Stabilizing Bar by Chad Blanchet

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good Value for Money - Highly Recommended

This is a really good solution for motorhome stability. I have used two sets for my TT. Background: I currently have pads from BAL X. They help but not as much as I would like. They might be on ebay. The jack is raised with a block of wood and the stabilizers (diamond type) also have a set of Lynx levelers underneath. The trailer rocked and rolled like crazy. Configuration: My TT has two rear bushings and two angled front bushings. The camper stands quite high above the ground and therefore wobbles a lot. I used one lever on each jack, one on the back of the trailer, and one lever in line with the frame rails. The rear two are directly in line with the bushings and the front two are almost perpendicular to the bushings. The movement created by my son rolling around the back of the hybrid floor is almost completely gone. That was hard. Swaying while walking is also greatly reduced. Well worth the $125 and 2 hours. The included HW works, but the 3/8" screw is at least an inch longer. You will need a wrench or two to remove/replace the rod ends from the mounts and some 3/8" washers, to make room things as needed the only thing i dislike, and it's minor, is that the stop bolts are stiff and hard to measure if you use a drill press/adaptor hey they won't fall out! I intend to weld the handle/T-handle (4-6" long) to the bolt heads (similar to other designs) for easier access and locking/unlocking of the bolts. You only need to turn 1/4 turn. or so.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
