145RB Front Jacks

Hi Newbie here...

I just purchased a 2016 145RB and it didn’t come with front stabilizer jacks. Do I really need them? And if so anyone know which ones to get? Thanks

Hello and welcome! I have a 2016 Jayco 154bh, not to much heavier than your model. I bought front jacks and yes, it does make a difference! On Amazon eaz-lift 24 inch 7500 lbs two pack $81.38. Easy to install. Just remember they hang down about 3 inches, just like you waste tank opening. But this does not seem to be an issue so far.

Yes, they are. I found these are the best so the screw end is easily accessed

Try it out a few times first. We have a 145RB and I thought I would need front stabilizers. Used it a few times first after getting the trailer and found that for us they are unnecessary. I figure that with the shorter length of the trailer and not using the wheel on the tongue jack, the trailer is quite stable for the 2 of us.

Hi welcome to the forum congrats on your NTY 145RB we pick ours up Thursday and go right to Gettysburg for our shake down trip. Harbor Freight has them. I'm going to get them there since the store is 8 minutes from work. https://www.harborfreight.com/2-1-2-...ack-96406.html
