Best way to stabilize my class C

What is the best way to stabilize my FE29 after leveling with blocks?

Options range from crank down stabilizers (I believe JamieGeek has them on his rig) - to leveling jacks that would take the place of the blocks and stabilize the rig.

Short if these you are on the suspension... and it is free to 'rock and roll' as you move around inside.

Hydraulic leveling jacks are undoubtedly the best way (since you asked!) as they level and stabilize 100% at the push of a button. But they are VERY expensive and add a lot of weight and complexity to your coach. Frame mounted crack down jacks (get good ones) are much cheaper and won't work quite as well but many folks use them. Or, since a motor home is already a pretty stable platform you can just get used to a bit of rocking and not bother at all.

I agree!
One button pushed: and it does ALL of the work!
