I too dislike the bounce and I made 3 of these , to go along with X chocks and factory jacks , this combo worked great with my 28' TT, but now with my 34' 5th wheel i cant get it to the level it was with my TT. . Im not sure if it is do the the slides (did not have any with my TT) ,

But these home made ones are cheap but very effective OP maybe give these a try first , not much to loose if they dont work for you, they can turn into blocking or firewood and you have some extra rachet straps

Thanks again, you have given me an idea but using square tubing and tied into my existing stabs.
Hmmm, got some thinking to do.
