Expert Answers about RV Jack Pads


  • Should I Choose SnapPad Or Stromberg Carlson Jack Pads For 9" Round Landing Gear?
  • Personally I prefer the SnapPad XTRA Jack Pads # SP54FR4 over the Stromberg Carlson # SC99MR as they have been around much longer and proven themselves to be a quality product. Both these will fit 4 jacks with a 9" round landing pad.

  • What Is the Difference Between the 2.5K Version and the 5K Version of the SnapPad SnapJack?
  • There is no difference between the 2,500 version of the SnapPad SnapJack for RV Scissor Jack Stabilizers, and the 5K to 7K version # SN65FR. The only difference between the two would be the capacity they can handle. In order to determine which one you'd need, you'd need to determine the capacity of your trailer jack and compare it to the feet and choose the set that matches your capacity.

  • Difference Between SnapPad Jack Stand Pads for Motorhome
  • That's a good question and the difference between the two SnapPad Jack Stand Pads for Motorhome are different shapes and depths, it isn't solely the notch in the center. I added photos of the two pads side-by-side so you can see the differences right next to each other. The correct pad will depend on the shape of your motorhome jack's feet: - 10" Round Jack Feet: SnapPad EQ Compact Jack Pads - 10" Round Jack Feet # SP64FR4 - 10" Octagon-Shaped or 10" Round Concave Jack Feet: SnapPad...

  • Comparing SnapPad XTRA Jack Pads SP54FR4 and SN78FR
  • The SnapPad XTRA Jack Pads for Lippert Leveling Systems part # SP54FR4 are the exact same as the Replacement Pads for SnapPad Jack Stand Pad System part # SN78FR. The latter part is actually just a replacement for the former which is offered in a few different quantities. I recommend whichever is more cost effective at the time. Nevertheless, they will both fit a 9" round jack foot so if that's what you have then either will work great for you.

  • Comparing the Anderson Camper Levelers AM3620 and AM3604 for Use on a Chrysler Town and Country
  • The Andersen Rapid Jack # AM3620 and the Andersen Camper Wheel Chock and Leveler # AM3604 are pretty similar with the main difference being that part # AM3604 will provide between 1/2" to 4" of height but part # AM3620 will provide 6-7/8" of height. Because of this I recommend going ahead and getting the one that can provide you with a great height, part # AM3620. It does come with the rubber grip pad that will help to prevent slipping but it it would be wise to go ahead and get the Andersen...

  • The Pace Edwards JackRabbit # 311-JRFA18A44 has a weather-resistant, padded ArmorTek deck laminated to rigid aluminum panels to provide a soft cover look with hard cover security. The Pace Edwards Full-Metal JackRabbit # 311-FMFA18A44 is a full metal, black powder-coated aluminum deck with interlocking silicone hinges to help the cover glide along the side rails.

  • What is the Difference Between a Stabilizing Scissor Jack and a Leveling Scissor Jack
  • There is no difference, that is just what the manufacturer decided to label it as. They both do the same job. Both Leveling Scissor Jacks, like part # JSC-24, and Stabilizing Scissor Jacks, like part # TJSCHD-24, are used to keep your RV level and stable. The only thing that you really need to keep an eye on is the weight capacity of each as these kinds of jacks are not meant to lift weight, just to hold it.

  • Would Ark Stabilizers Be Better Than Scissor Jacks With JT Strong Arm Stabilizers
  • The Ark Drop Down Corner RV Stabilizer Jacks # AR94FR are definitely better than just standard scissor jacks, but the JT Strong Arm Stabilizers # LC191025 are a better option since they distribute the weight across the frame to help strengthen the stabilization of the trailer. The Ark jacks are much easier to use than scissor jacks and can quickly be set in place or retracted and locked up out of the way, so they definitely have their place in the market. Since you're looking for the best...

  • Product Comparison Of MORryder Scissor Jack Cross Brace And JTs Strong Arm Jack Stabilizer Kit
  • The difference between the MORryde Scissor Jack Cross Brace Stabilizer for Trailers and RVs # MR82AR, and the JT's Strong Arm Jack Stabilizer Kit # LC191023 is while both limit side to side movement of your 30' travel trailer, only the JT will limit the front to back due it using 4 stabilizing arms on the front stabilizers. Neither the MORryde or the JT's will need to be removed from the trailer when you are ready to get back on the road. I recommend the JT's Stabilizer Kit, but to determine...

  • Comparing Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE and RV Rider Bike Rack
  • The # HLY84FR and # HLY64FR share many similarities but there are 2 key differences aside from the price. The first is the way the bikes are secured. Although both are frame mount bike racks, the Sport Rider uses your standard ratcheting hooks while the RV Rider has padded clamps. Both work well, but the clamps are handy for bikes with alternative frames since they can attach to the frame or seat post. The other major difference is the compatibility. Both work with a motorhome, but the...

  • Comparing Manual and Automatic RV Leveling Systems
  • Electronic RV leveling systems like the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC358590 do make it easier to level your RV since they can operate automatically. Leveling your RV by pushing a button or two can make life at the next campground a lot more pleasant since the manual cranking and the back and forth with your helpers is eliminated. Manual operation is still possible in the event of a power outage. The Ground Control use Hall effect motors with sensors that can keep track of the motors'...

  • Comparing Dexter and etrailer Self-Adjusting Electric Trailer Brakes
  • Brake assembly # K23-478-00 is a Nev-R-Adjust assembly. Like you said it is rated for 4,400 so it has a bigger magnet than a 3,500 pound assembly would have. The etrailer self-adjusting assembly is # AKEBRK-35L-SA rated for 3,500 pounds. One of the biggest differences besides price and capacity is the pad material. On the Dexter assembly the pad material is snapped off of a long strip of the material. On the etrailer assembly the material is actually cut. What happens when it is snapped...
