Question:

I’m interested in the moryde RV stabilizer for a fifth wheel, which would be better the hitch mount or the I-beam mount for a Brinkley Z 2900 5th wheel?

Hey Keith. Both the MORryde Hitch Mounted Stabilizer item # MR22AR and the I-Beam Mounted Stabilizer item # MR96RV are comparable when it comes to the support they provide. If you have the optional 2" hitch, I recommend going with the Hitch Mounted Stabilizer item # MR22AR simply for the ease of installation and break down.

It looks like the rear landing gear is in front of the axles on the Brinkley Z 2900s. The hitch mounted option will definitely be more beneficial.

Do you have a 2" hitch?

So the hitch amount would provide more stability on the back end of the trailer then if I use the I beam at the back of the trailer, correct?

@KeithD Yes, that's correct. We've had quite a bit of positive feedback about the MORryde Hitch Mounted Stabilizer item # MR22AR, especially in situations like yours where there's a big overhang behind the rear axle.
