if you buy the stabilizer bar, will this reduce most of the 'wobbly' sensation? Maybe buy 2 stabilizer bars (one for each end)? How about sandbags?

The stabilizer bars were not available at the time I purchased it, or at least I was not aware they were available. Yes, bars across the bottom and sandbags will help a lot. That said, it is not an easily collapsible or portable product. I would say it's like a very heavy tent frame, one that can support your weight.

Why waste your money? This is way overpriced and there are many excellent pull up bars available.

Yes on mounts because of the swivel design and maybe on lag bolts:It depends on your total weight divided by two and if your doing full body weight or partial suspension vs dynamic gymnastic routines. If it was me i would install/mount a 2x4 between rafter joist and replace lag bolts with same diameter machine bolt,lock washers and nut. This is a simple modification and it will be SOLID! If you decide to go with lag bolts I would always inspect prior to use.I like your idea and I may try it myself, good luck!

I just put my bike on crooked using the frame, but it would no doubt be better and more stable if I got a cross-bar adapter such as the Allen Sports Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adapter which is one of the less expensive of such bars available on Amazon. May be I'll order one, myself :)!

Get the Elite version of this bar--it comes with a crossbar that keeps the pull-up bar stable. If u have that version but want to stabilize it more, use a couple 40+ lb dumb bells on the bottom bars to weigh it down. Works great for me and I'm a 220 pound 6'2" dude.

Peak design also sells a separate part they recently came up with to address this problem. It is called the "pro pad stabilizer". I have one now and appreciate it very much.

No, although if your track bar ends are worn, adding a leveling kit will give you death wobble. I had to put new bushings in mine and then every thing was fine.

Yes, I just got my bike and the seat wobbles a lot. I crammed some cardbd in where it appeared to be wobbling, but it only improved a bit. Does anyone have any suggestions???

I move them a lot, and have not had any problems either. Sandbags can work to stabilize them i windy conditions it needed.

I use 2 stabilizers. One goes under the rear bumper, and the other goes under the frame before I extend the slide. Our trailer is a Rockwood, which I believe has a very springy suspension, and these stabilizers seem to help a great deal. I still use the corner stab jacks, but I think I would be just as stable without them.

Yes for a short period. I filled the post with concrete and rebar and that reduced it some. It's very little vibration kind of like the ones you see on TV after a shot.

I have a set installed on the front jacks of my 8000 lb. 5th wheel. All the weight is on the wheels & jacks. The stabilizer bars help to minimize sway in the trailer while parked. I'm pleased with results.

This comes with the bars & the jack feet (depending on the application) that stabilize the RV only. No jacks are provided. I have this system & I can say it does what it says it does. Give Paul Hanscom a call (he is the owner). You'll have to google his personal website since I can't link it here.

i put sand it makes it more stable , just use only three bags , but is just because is for my wife ,and shes only punching the bag to do exercise from her heart operation,so if you want to beat the bag real good i would put at least, four bags,but sand is better than water,Benny.

I really don't know why swagman doesn't answer these things. The anti wobble has nothing to do with the cable. the anti-wobble is achieved by tightening the bolt. The cable is for security. It really is a good product.

Well, the base has four fairly large stabilizer bars that I think hold it really very well, the only thing that wobbles is the actual form on the pole kind of wiggles. I think if your wings are super super heavy you could always drop a couple sand bags on the legs but chances are I think you'd be fine. Good luck.

I also purchased a U shaped bar that attaches underneath the back of the seat to stabilize it. I took it to my local bike shop and they put the seat and bar on for me, as I did not know how to do it. If they used anything additional, they did not tell me or charge me. I hope this helps.

It would indeed stop the movement but the bags will still bounce more than desired when hitting the board --- it's just too flimsy of a design. Poor design = poor experience. Save your money and buy something sturdier that doesn't need to be fixed with sandbags at the bottom.
