    Elkridge Front leveling jacks and the length of time to lower or raise RV

    We just bought a 2013 FLPS and compared to our 2007 Denali that we had it seems like it takes a long time for the jacks to raise the front of the RV. It also sounds like theres a lot of stress on it moving it up. Does anyone else have the same issue? Just trying to make sure that there isnt...

    Rear Stabilizing Jacks

    My jacks were on 4 inch box tubing. I removed the box tubing to allow the jacks to be completely recessed. I discovered this after nearly getting stuck because the jacks sat way too low. Naturally this means the jacks could have been ripped out as well. They were originally welded in, but i...

    Electric Jacks

    I'm a new BH owner and I have a question. My BH 3385 has electric rear jacks which I really like but my question is: If I put leveling boards under the wheels on one side do I need to put the same size board under the jack on that side, or will the jacks compensate for one side being higher...

    We have a 2010 Landmark Augusta. We were releveling it this evening & the front jacks stopped working. They are fully extended. There is no motor noise at all now. Is there a fuse somewhere, or something else we can check? Thank you for any & all help.

    Front jacks won't raise

    Has anyone had the front jacks motor go bad? Mine lets out a little groan and quits when trying to raise. I did see sparks fly out of the front of the motor. It will lower tho. Cranking it up by hand really sucks. Is it easily replaced?

    Electric rear jacks

    I have been having trouble with the electric rear jacks on my 09/2900mk. I am pretty sure it is a switch issue especially since it gets soaked from wheel spray. I took a look at the manual raising screw and realized that the 2 wrenches supplied with the trailer would not work. Am I missing a...
