Thanks for letting me know. We're selling it on a seasonal site with deck, shed, all the stuff you'd need for seasonal camping. We're not in any hurry as we really like the campground and the friends we've made. I've been retired for 7 years and DW will retire in 3-4 years. Been considering relocating to Kentucky or Tennessee to escape the cold Wisconsin winters. I don't mind the snow but am tired of -20 with a -35 wind chill. Arizona, Florida etc are all too hot in the summer. I started the price high knowing we'd have to come down during negotiations. We have had several tire kickers but no solid offers. One couple didn't like the fact that there was no bunk house. Hello - that's why I posted pics and a floor plan in the ad. If we have to wait and continue to drop the $ until next year then I guess that's what we'll do.

Wiscampsin, I watched a video of the installation of the JT system and perhaps an answer to why the rear installation may not be a factory installed option is because in the video there was not a metal cross beam near the rear of the frame to attach them to. All frames are different I guess. The guy in the video had to bolt a piece of iron across the back of the frame for the strongarms to attach to. Just something that popped out at me. Take care.

Thanks for the reply! I have been looking at them for a little while and was thinking of maybe putting them on my to do list for the summer. I agree we will never have a rock solid platform. I've seen you have had a trouble free rig. Sadly, I have not. Some manufacturer issues but mostly bad service from the dealer. Several issues for myself, most notably the kitchen pluming and the slides. Seals would come off all the time and then they said the slides were all "off". The dealer "fixed" them but not without scratching the slide outs and now the outside stickers and slides don't line up well with the rest of the rig. It's a shame because I really like the Sabre. It has just left a sore spot for me so I have many mixed feelings. I still think our paint scheme is one of the best looking out there. Many compliments as I'm sure you experience the same. Well I sure hope spring comes soon for us as this winter has been much too long. Thanks again and happy camping!

One more thing. They can be ordered as a factory installed option now so there must have been alot of people asking for them. Only problem is the factory installed option is for the front only, don't know why they wouldn't do the rear too.

Yes they are JT Strongarm stabilizers. Our dealer installed them front and back and in combination with wheel chocks they do work very well at minimizing movement. I say minimizing because I don't think anybody with a 5er will ever totally eliminate movement.
