Thanks Jesstalkn. I'll take you up on that offer if I am unable to do it on my own. What you have shown me, looks pretty straight forward so I'm going to give it a try this weekend. If I run into trouble, you'll be hearing from me.

Re: SnapPads
I drilled my drain holes...
And I was thankful they left a hole in the bottom to access the nut....
Had my rig in for warranty work which included a new front landing gear hydraulic leg...
The tech replaced the leg and just bolted my old foot with the pad to the leg...easy peasy...
And every tech who I came across asked about em...they thought it was a great idea...
So far, I have really liked them and while they are not a do or die item like a surge protector, they sure are nice and maintenance/work free!! I give em 2 thumbs up!!

Has anyone used the RV Snap Pads with the Steadyfast stabilizer system?
I don't have the Steadyfast but I do have the JT Strongarms.
No problems.

Thanks, Dave. Did you have to weld them, or were you able to bolt them to the foot pad?

I seen my first set of the new updated version of the SnapPads today. They look great.
Is anyone still on the fence about ordering them ? Or has everybody pulled the trigger and are now enjoying them ?
One more question is there anyone out there that is disappointed in your perches if so why ? Just curios I can't imagine anyone disappointed in them.

I have the Xtra Pads with the slot and they do the job. Bear in mind that an amount of water will remain on top of the metal foot until it evaporates. This has nothing to do with the Snap Pads. It's the way the foot is designed with a slight upturn around the circumference.

I was actually using one of the first sets ever made, before they were sold at retail. I installed them 2 years ago last April. It was time to sport the latest version

I installed the SnapPads on my 2009 BH 3580RL a few weeks ago and am pleased with the results. I haven't transported the coach yet, but I'm concerned about the middle jack pad on the Door Side. I have one of the early Level-Up installations and the jack is mounted on the left side of the stairs very near to the tire. I haven't had any problems in the past, but the addition of the SnapPad leaves a few inches of spacing between itself and the tire.
I contacted SnapPad Customer Support and they could not offer any advice regarding tire clearance since the product is a third party add on and there are many different installation methods foand the various rigs I've attached a photo for review and would appreciate any input or suggestions regarding if there is sufficient clearance between the SnapPad and tire. Anyone have a similar situation? Will the tire move and make contact with the pad if it hits a pothole or curb?
thanks in advance,
Chuck Dvorak
