JT Strongarms

On my 2012 Jayco Pinnacle I installed a set (all 4 corners) JT Strongarms, and have to say they are hands down the best most stable system for RV's.
I just ordered a new 2018 Jayco Pinnacle 36KPTS, that of course comes with the Lippart 6 point electric auto-leveling system. Just how stable is this setup and would it be worth my while to remove the JT Strongarms from my old unit and install them (just the front set) on my new Fiver when it comes in, or would it be a waste of time and effort. (had a cement slab poured since this picture was taken)

Not sure about the strong arms but we ordered a 2018 Pinnacle too. We were told it would arrive the end of June, is that the same time you are hearing?

That is what we are being told, Mid to Late June expected arrival date. Hopefully they are in the ballpark. Excited.

I would definitely remove and keep them. The auto level still uses the sloppy pinned tube in a tube in a tube landing gear. The strong arms will fit the auto leveling rear jacks but may require a couple adaptors. You can never have too much stability!

Just received our Pinnacle KPTS and leveled it up. Been cleaning and loading it up to take off. Haven't noticed any problem with the unit shaking when walking around inside. Seems pretty stable to me.
