Expert Reply:
The stability of your travel trailer is improved by making sure your RV is level, wheels choked, and your Lippert High-Speed Power Stabilizer Jack, # LC298707 extended appropriately on a wood or block base and not the bare ground where they can sink. I suggest using the Super Grip Chock Wheel Stabilizers for Tandem-Axle Trailers, # UF21-001091 and Stackers Leveling Blocks w/ Bag for Trailers and RVs, # A10-0920. Position these beneath your wheels to level the travel trailer and under the stabilizers where needed to prevent the feet from sinking into the ground. Your Lippert High-Speed Power Stabilizer Jack - Black Waterproof Switch Kit - 30" Lift # LC298707 is not designed to lift the travel trailer but to stabilize it.
If you are looking for a replacement/upgrade to the Lippert option, I suggest the Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizer with Dual Motors, 30" Lift, # UF39-941705 or the manual version in # UF39-941704.
