2023-2024 Eagle HT 5th wheel

[Parafirediesel]

We are considering moving from our 264BH which we have grown out of. We really like the Eagle 5th wheels but google and Lippert have me concerned. I have noticed that the posts and issues have seemed to stop on models that are late 22 through current 24. That maybe from lack of use however I just was curious on this forums thoughts? Any issues with the low hanging Lippert stabilizer jacks? Thanks for any and all input.

Not sure what you mean. We have a 2023 Eagle 355 that we custom ordered and have been pretty happy so far. No issues that we have seen with jack legs. We’ve had intermittent issues with the on-demand WH and the large kitchen slide (both have failed to operate one time or another but then work fine). BMPro has been behaving as well. No regrets.

That's great to hear! I was referring to
Lippert frame crack weld issues that many have posted on across all manufacturers including jayco...there was even the start or a class action law suit that appears was thrown out in 2020. As far as the concern on the rear Jack's, on the Eagle HT they have maybe 7" clearance to ground on the model we looked at. They are situated directly behind the rear axle tires..and the dealer says that makes it a non issue. Truly appreciate the reply. This forum is awesome.

This is our first Jayco and our 3rd 5th wheel in 25 years and we like it. I have heard of cracking from a few posts, but not what I would call a chronic problem. Some have had stress cracks along the exterior walls where the slide out cutouts are. To be honest, most of the issues I have read about relate to someone forgetting to do something or not doing something correctly during assembly; lose wires, kinked water lines, poorly placed fastners, etc. Most of the time they are easily fixable after you identify the issue.

Great to hear. Appreciate the feedback
