So I ended up dropping $20 on these anti-vibration pads for my stabilizer jacks, after a full summer of use I'm amazed on how well they have held up, gravel, rocks, pavement and concrete they save on putting a block under the jack to prevent scratching up the metal on the jack feet... Time saver and 4 less blocks cluttering up my storage space!

Drilled holes in the pads to align to the holes already in the stabilizer feet, two stainless steel bolts, lock, and fender washers each and had them on within minutes.

Don't they defeat the purpose of stabilizers? If they can compress to absorb vibration, won't that happen as you move around in the trailer? I've always thought the firmer the footing the better.

They are super rigid and haven't noticed any difference between this and just having the plastic "lego" blocks under them.

Personally, I’d rather be inside a well-grounded metal trailer. Lightning needs a path to ground, and I prefer that path have no chance to include ME....
May weld a stabilizing jack solid with a direct hit, but at least I’ll know it went to ground....
