Is Capacity of Stabilizing Scissor Jacks Combined or For Individual Jack
Question:
We need to replace one of the corner stabilizer jacks on our new 2019 Micro Minnie 2100BH as it was bent and came off in the first time we unhitched. Looks like the old one can be replaced by mounting a new with a bolt. Trying to understand if the weights listed are for the full camper or since there are 4 it is divided? Only one needs replaced and hoping you can help us find the right part! Is it recommended we replace 2 at a time also even if only one is damaged? The picture attached is of the damaged stabilizer that came off the camper.

The capacity of scissor jacks is based on the individual jack. For example, the Scissor Stabilizer Jacks w/ Handle - 18-3/4" Lift - 10,000 lbs - Qty 4 # TJSCHD-24-4 each have a 2,500 lb capacity, but since these come in a quantity of four, the capacity is a total of 10,000 lbs.
Since your 2019 Micro Minnie 2100BH has a 7,000 lb GVWR, these scissor jacks would have more than enough capacity, and it is recommended you replace all of them at the same time.
If you were instead referring to instead a power stabilizer (I couldn't quite tell from your photo what you were referring to) such as the Lippert Components High-Speed Power Stabilizer Jack # LC298707 or # LC369774, those stabilizers don't actually a capacity as they are not designed to lift, just to stabilize. If you need a new foot for yours, that would depend on the manufacturer and model of your stabilizer.
I have added a link to our entire selection of replacement foot pads, or if you let me know what you have I may be able to find something for you. I've also added a link to our entire selection of scissor jacks for you to check out.
