Quickly and easily stabilize your unhitched fifth-wheel trailer with this sturdy steel tripod. Adjustable hitch cup makes setup a snap.
Features:
Specs:
After unhitching your fifth-wheel trailer or RV, steady it with the Ultra-Fab tripod stabilizer. Simply position the tripod beneath your trailer's king pin and adjust the height of the stabilizer hitch cup so that it surrounds the king pin. Use the handle on the hitch cup to fine-tune the height of the stabilizer. Turn counterclockwise until the cup is sufficiently snug against the fifth-wheel king pin. Once everything is in place your trailer will be stable and supported.

Quickly and easily stabilize your unhitched fifth-wheel trailer with this sturdy steel tripod. Adjustable hitch cup makes setup a snap.My order arrived soaking wet box torn up and mashed. Light switch in side fox was destroyed by king pin stand. Not sure why anyone would place a fragile items in with heavy steel components.
Made in the USA, decent effective range, quality construction. What more could someone want?
That said, this is heavy so eTrailer shipped it via UPS. UPS destroyed the package, taped it up, and then proceeded to destroy it again. Luckily, I was only missing one small piece of hardware that is easily sourced locally. Keep that in mind if UPS destroys packages in your area.

It does sound a like the box had a bit of a tumble. Customer Service will be in contact with you.
Easy to setup and takedown. Well built and quite strong. Makes a noticeable difference in the stability of my 5th wheel and reduces movement. I’d definitely buy it again, no regrets.
This a sturdy jack that provides stability to the front of the 5th wheel.
I am quite satisfied with the quality and functionality of this product. However, the product brochure and other information about the product indicated an appropriate security padlock was included with the product. I didn’t receive such a padlock. I’ve checked at Home Depot, Walmart and Gibson’s and have not been able to locate a padlock which fits in the hitch cup. Can you assist me in securing a padlock which fits? I am attaching a picture of the hitch cup with pre-drilled holes for the padlock. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Thank you for your review. Unfortunately the padlock does not come with the Ultra-Fab Economy 5th Wheel King Pin Tripod Stabilizer any longer. If you would like to purchase a padlock at the hardware store the holes are 1 apart so you would need padlock that is 1 wide.
I haven't used it yet. I had one a few yrs ago and it worked great. I switched out the 5th wheel hitch to a Gooseneck so I'm not sure how this will work with it.

First, congrats on the Gooseneck trailer! Ultra-Fab makes a gooseneck tri pod stabilizer part # UF19-950450. What I found is that you do not have to buy a whole new stabilizer. You can buy part # UF19-001057, which is the ball portion of the stabilizer, and convert the king pin tri pod over to a gooseneck tri pod.
I ordered the tripod just to get some extra stability on my 5th wheel camper. As soon as it came in I put it on and it made a HUGE difference! The front end of my camper used to have a little wobble to it and didn't feel very sturdy but now it feel 100 times more stable. I haven't had the tripod very long so I can't comment on weather or not it's extremely durable but it seems to be very well made.
I purchased this for a 2021 Grand Design 31MB 5th wheel. The King Pin tripod along with the X-chocks I purchased from e-trailer were a perfect match/fit for our 5th wheel. We immediately noticed the difference with these installed just as described in the video on e-trailers web site. Thank you e-trailer for your awesome customer service and abundant information for items when making a decision for purchase!
Still working good. The only thing that I noticed on this is around the top were the legs go into the top there is rust and paint flaking off. We full time so it’s been from Cali to NY in the weather all year.
Light and easy to use. Thanks e-trailer.

Excellent. Really helps stabilize my rv. Recommend to anyone with 5th wheel. Also great security lock.
Super easy assembly and install/set up. Solid construction. Highly recommended for the price.
Does the job helps to stabilize the front of my 5th wheel.
Yes, it did stabilize the 5th wheel. Especially when the spin cycle on the washer is running.
You need this especially if you have a washer in your rig
The tripod stabilizer is easy to set up and stores easily in original box. It definitely makes a difference as far as wiggle and shake inside the coach. A fifth wheel needs support under the hitch when parked, there's too much overhang past the stabilizer feet on the main frame of the coach.
I feel the unit could have been a heavier built to take more weight but I have had it tight and it held!

The stabilizer offers good value for the money. Still working well, havent used the extensions yet. Etrailer is a good company to do business with.
My 5th wheel was constantly shaking when walking inside the trailer. Once I install this "Ultra-Fab Economy 5th Wheel King Pin Tripod Stabilizer", the shaking stopped. I could not be more happy with this product. I highly recommend this Tripod.

I am very happy with this product, I would recommend this Tripod to everyone that has a 5th wheel.
Works great.
I like etrailer because they sell you exactly what they say they're going to sell you, at a very reasonable price. If you're in doubt about anything they have a video that will show you what you need to know. And if you still have questions you can call them and they will have the answers. However you access them they have exactly what you need.

Still works great. Thanks
Good product at a great price. Simple to setup and a noticeable improvement in stability with other people moving inside the camper.
Really stabilizes the front of 5th wheel. Easy to setup and take down. Very happy with it.

Have had no problems, works good either at its minimum or maximum height.
It heavy duty and works great to stabilize my 5th wheel. I purchased the ball assy so I can use this with my Anderson hitch setup. I also had to purchase the leg extensions so it would work with my 2018 Genesis Supreme 28CR Toy Hauler. The negative is it's heavy and awkward to store for travel. It does not come with a travel bag. I carry it in the back of my truck due to the sharp edges on the foot pads.
Ordered this product to provide more stability in our 5th wheel, as it was quite wobbly... Packaging was damaged, both exterior and interior box. The retaining pin for one of the feet was missing and the the exterior box had been taped up where the damage was. Won't be until after the third foot is attached that I will know if it provides stability to the front of trailer.

I will have our customer service team reach out to you.
We are so happy with this tripod and replacement ball assembly. We were happy to be able to find a product that we could use with our 5th wheel hitch. It is so easy to use and gives us the extra stability we were hoping for. Thank you!
I ordered the ball for My gooseneck hookup and two days later I had it, Great service and great product, Thanks for going above and beyond to get my order to me

I love it, Thanks for the awesome product, Please send me a catalog of your other products
A year ago I backed over an icy burm near my 5th wheel hitch and slid right into my kin pin jack. Oops. Took that one out! Ordered my replacement from etrailer and it came lick- ity- split. I love my new tri-pod jack. It's good looking, functional, and is very sturdy. Don't worry, I'm now a "snowbird"...no more backing around close to my unit in Oregon's winter months.
Do you have a question about this Camper Jack?
