I've searched the forum and see a few posts on issues with pre-installed solutions, but has anyone added a manual jack for stabilizing their MB3500 chassis RV?
I'd like to reduce the side to side motion when walking around inside or entering/exiting the coach. Currently I use a Valterra 020106 RV Stabilizer under the rear bumper which helps a little...

saw a video on YouTube from a guy named "Grandpa Ron" who is a retired engineer running a Winnebago View on MBS3500. He picked up some cargo stabilizer bars from Harbor Freight, cut them down a bit and braces under the rear wheel well to create outriggers - looks like a simple, low cost effective solution...
