Problem: Sagging roof in the middle of a garage.

I could sister the bottom cord and/or add struts from bottom cord to the rafters but room is very limited.

Question: After jacking the trusses at the sagging part of the roof. Would tying the trusses together at the King posts with 2x6/8 help give structural support and keep the roof from sagging once the jacks are removed?

    $\begingroup$ you need to move the load out to the edges, which is what struts to the rafters would do $\endgroup$
