Chassis mod- landing gear

Finished my landing gear mod. After factory jack failed on the lead side I ordered a new set of lippert legs, the next business day I found out that it would be late April before I would get them and I have trips planned early and late April. I then looked for other options and saw the Bulldog Dual drive set up. I ordered them on Sunday and had them on Wednesday. Pretty sweet set up both legs operate independently, but the are shorter than the factory legs by 6" and have 18"of stroke compared to 21" of stroke on the factory jacks. I don't think this will be a problem, I repositioned the jacks to sit 3" lower than factory and never had to move a bracket. These jacks are sturdy, very beefy looking, and I added JT strongarm stabilizers to the 5er as well.
Jacks are quiet and because of the location and lack of space on my camper I could only use the high torque position which runs about as fast as stock. All in all I'm happy with my purchase. Took a little work but they're in and working well.
