Stabilizer jacks for Precept

Am having trouble finding stabilizer jacks that will work with my new 24' Precept. Any Precept owners out there find a solution yet?

I don't own a Precept, but if I remember correctly, you have a Class C MH. You might try the Big Foot leveling system - I think they make generic jacks for Class Cs, among other things. www.bigfootleveler.com is their website. I understand they are a bit pricey, but have heard good reviews.

Thanks tinlizzie! Your referral to Big Foot lines up with what Jayco told me this a.m.

Hopefully you will find something there that will work for you. How about posting some pics when you get it all done ? I'm sure there are other folks out there besides me that would be interested in seeing what your set-up looks like when installed.

tinlizzie - Big Foot has 2 systems that work for the Sprinter Chassis. One has an auto-leveling function and the other type is manual. They're both hydraulic and are top quality. But obviously they're not cheap - $3600 for the auto-level model + installation. Suddenly this project has been removed from front burner status for me.

jerrym - Wow, I knew Big Foot would be expensive, but that is way out of my league, too. Did some more checking, and you might want to look at some of the stabilizer jacks made by BAL. They are a division of Norco Industries, and web site is www.norcoind.com If you just want stabilizers, and not necessarily levelers, then the cost goes way down. I see some C jacks and some telescoping stabs on their site that might do for your situation. Some go as high as 5,000#, which might be enough for your Class C. I think it might be worth a look, anyhow.
