Rear motor vs front hydraulics

[whanner]

It doesn't make much sense to brag about the speed of the front hydraulic jacks when you pair it with the slooooow rear electric stabilizer jacks. All BCs should all come with 6 point hydraulic jacks as standard. I can get the front up and down quick but those rear stabilizer jacks leave you wishing for hydraulics! The BC is too nice a rig to not have 6 point leveling.

For the right money you can have 6 point leveling.

I believe the Level-Up is an option when ordering a BC.
After-market, you are talking about $5K to retrofit your rig. Trace

yeah.. ours was already on the lot when we found/purchased it.

There might be some people who would like a great coach like the Big Country, but can't afford every option. Choice is good.

I can handle the speed of the rear levelers, it's the noise that gets to me - traveling home from Florida this year I didn't put them down at night, even though I wanted to, so that I wouldn't wake anyone up in the campground when we left in the morning. By the way it's not just mine, same brand levelers different brand trailer, just as noisy.
Heartland could do better.

I really didn't want or need a full leveling system, but it seems to me that if they already have hydraulic pump, wouldn't a couple of cylinders, and some line been cheaper than the electric jack, or a least close to equal.

X2! They start making these rigs cost too much and those models will be gone like Carriage and NuWa.

I'm sure they said that about A/Cs, refrigerators, toilets, showers and slide outs but they are all standard now :-)

What "noise" are you talking about? If it's making a screaming sound, lube the joints and the Acme screw that operates it. It's a rear stabilizer, not a rear leveling jack, so you should not be trying to lift the back end with it.
