You are very welcome, I had them for a few months jus waiting to install them. I read and I look at a lot of youtube videos to find out how to install them, so I said I might as well do in now because the weather wasn't too bad yesterday.
The hardest part was finding out how I was going to install the front strong arm stabilizer between the front jacks but after that, it went pretty good and quick.
In the set that I got off of Amazon gave me enough to even do the back jack stabilizer but I'm going to hold offf for now and see how this does.

I want to say it took about two hrs, give or take, the biggest time consuming was trying to find out how I wanted to install the strong arm between the two front jacks.
You know that you can do it a few ways and I wanted to do it the best way for me. I lift up the floor in my front storage compartment to see what I needed to do, they give you long and some short swing-bolt to do that with and some different kind of bracket.
The short swing-bolts was too short and the longer ones were too long so I just drill and tap into the square tubing using the short swing-bolts and after that I went pretty quick. Thanks for asking, I am really pleased with the work..

I just completed wiring the dedicated circuit for the Jayco to a 30 amp breaker. Since the power cord no longer runs underneath the garage door to the receptacle behind the beer fridge I wasn't sure I'd remember to unplug the trailer before pulling out so I made 4 of these reminders an had the wife laminate em with her machine. For now I put one of em on the inside of the lid of the storage compartment that holds the bars for the wdh so I don't forget to unplug before pulling out of the drive. I haven't figured out how to attach one to my forehead but when I do I'll let ya know

Picked it up from the dealer yesterday. I dropped it off back in the beginning of October for some minor warranty items. They replaced the sink tail pipe assemly (it had a hairline crack, probably from over-tightening), replaced the battery (bad cell), replaced the bathroom vanity cabinet door, and replaced the emergency window latch in the living room (I didn't even know that was broken!)
I will note that the entertainment head unit didn't actually need replacing. It turns out that Furrion did an update to the function of the "Zone 3" speakers but didn't document that functionality anywhere! The tech had to call them a few times to troubleshoot what was happening. So if you have a 2020 model year rig with the Furrion Bluetooth head unit, you can now have Zone 1 and 2 playing from one source (say a DVD movie), but the Zone 3 (outside) speakers can play from another source (FM or Bluetooth). The kicker is that the default input for Zone 3 is FM radio. To change input you have to push and hold the Zone 3 button for 2 - 3 seconds until the display blinks, then select the input you want for the outside speakers.
The dealer folks were excellent to work with, and we are excitedly preparing for our Christmas RV trip to Walt Disney World!
Happy Holidays!

My spare tire is in the back underneath so it wasn’t a problem. There is a YouTube video we’re they had there spare in the front so they had to modify their install.

Thankfully the only critical item was the emergency window latch. Everything else was really minor touch-up stuff.
We are fortunate to live just south of Atlanta, Georgia so our winters are pretty mild. We are gearing up for our trip to Walt Disney World for Christmas week, which is pretty exciting! We leave on the 20th!!
I think our next trip will be the end of January or beginning of February. Going back to Tampa, FL to visit some dear friends.

Tv installed
I installed and set up a new 40 inch Furrion TV. It’s a little large for the space
