Getting level used to mean crawling with a bubble level, twisting jacks, and hoping you’d guessed right. The Electric Ground Control TT Automatic 5-Point Travel Trailer Leveling System takes that guesswork away. Its 5 precise, motorized jacks automatically extend or retract to level your trailer in just a couple of minutes. A wall-mount touchpad with an LCD screen gives you simple button control, while the powered A-frame jack’s 18" total travel makes hitching and leveling nearly effortless.
Uneven ground or heavy loads can make manual jacks strain and jerk, but these electric jacks use Hall effect sensors to measure motor revolutions for precise control. The result is smooth movement and accurate leveling every time. The system can even store your hitch height so it automatically returns your trailer to the same position when you’re ready to hook back up. And if power ever fails, manual access ports let you use a 3/8" drive ratchet and extension to raise or lower the jacks by hand.
Once leveled, this system keeps your trailer rock-solid. Four rear power jacks work together with the front tongue jack in a triangular pattern for exceptional stability. Each jack is built from sturdy steel with a black powder coat finish that resists rust and corrosion from road spray and weather exposure. With a 10,000-lb GVWR capacity, it’s designed for dependable strength on every trip.
When your setup includes Lippert’s factory-installed OneControl system and Wi-Fi, you can skip the touchpad altogether and run everything from your phone or tablet. The OneControl app lets you operate the Ground Control TT remotely—level, retract, or adjust—all from your iOS or Android device. It turns campsite setup into a simple tap on your screen instead of a multi-step chore.
Larry from Oregon called watching the system level his trailer in two minutes “a pleasure,” and for good reason—it works cleanly once installed. The kit comes with mounting brackets, spacers, hardware, wiring harnesses, and leveling sensors for both front and rear jacks. Everything bolts on to existing frame points using basic tools, giving you an automatic leveling system that feels like it came built into your trailer from day one.

Ratings & Reviews
My son and I installed the jacks and they work great. I had Lippert electric stabilizers so once those were removed I was able to install the jacks in the same location. It took me about three days, working just a couple hours a day to get the jack framwork installed and then my son came and helped install the actual jacks to the mounts. So if you took two whole days you could probably get it completed.
Be careful product would not fit on my trailer, they wanted exorbitant amount of money to return so I’m stuck with it, asked for for clarification from management but got poor service from them.
The tongue jack broke internally a month ago. Lippert may be sending me a new one. Other than that, we loved the unit when it was all working. It was very difficult to install. It took a RV moble tech three days to get it all installed and working
Just had item installed a couple of days ago and as of now is working just fine. The shipping was an issue though. I was originally told that I was to receive the product on 2/16/24 and then I received another email that it would arrive on the 12th by 7pm but it never showed. I then got an update that it would be delivered on the 13th by 7pm and then they changed the time to 8pm and again it didn't show up. This happened as well on the 14th and on the 15th I finally received a call from the freight company that it would be delivered on the 16th (the original ship date). During this time waiting for this item I had to cancel two different appointments and re-schedule them. Something has to be done about this in the future so your customers can truly know when their item will arrive
We love our one touch jack system. We used in on a 3 month camping trip out west setting up probably 40 plus times and we continue to use our camper and the jacks work great!
Very happy with its performance
Installed the Liepert Ground Controll TT on our Rockwood Signature 8329SB. Works great!
Had questions during the install and the etrailer people were right there to help. Great Product! Great Support! THANK YOU!

Very nice leveling system. Had a damaged tongue jack that etrailer in only one day had a replacement shipped. Excellent customer service is much appreciated. Thank you.
Coming from the days of manually leveling off at camper with multiple attempts and borderline ruining camping trips yelling at each other. The system makes leveling the camper a breeze. I just hit a button and the go do something else while the camper "dances".
etrailer is my go-to site for useful, expert opinions, reviews, install videos and more for every product I need for my truck and trailers! These guys cut through all of the sales speak clutter and get to the facts that really help me make decisions. I'm thrilled about this new auto leveling system and can't wait to get it installed on my toy hauler!
This has definitely been one of the greatest additions to our Stryker travel trailer. Order was received a day earlier than expected and all in good condition. Installation for myself and two other guys was a slight bit time consuming (due to my wanting all the wires hidden in the underbelly of the trailer). Watching the system level my trailer, with a touch of a single button, impresses me still today a year later. Great purchase and I would definitely recommend this product.
Absolutely love the Leveling System. Once you’ve had this , can’t go back. Note stacking blocks or driving up onto levelers .... pull in , press the Auto Level button .... start camping and let the system do its thang!! Love it. Thanks to Etrailer , best place to buy just about anything.
After a hiccup all things turned out great. Delivered on time and off loaded in good shape. We have always had good service with Etrailer. Will order SOMETHING again. Thanx.

Not as good as expected. Works half the time. Other half we have to reset. Am not happy. Have called two rv repair shops that said they would be out to look at problem and neither showed up. Do you have anybody in Brownsville TX area that makes house calls? We are parked and right rear fault wont let us retract jacks. Glad we are not in a hurry to get anywhere soon. Response would come in handy. Thanx
This is by far the best investment I've made into our camping experience! I installed this kit on my Forest River 33' Toy Hauler. I did the install by myself and it took about 8-9 hours over a weekend. It would have gone much faster with another set of hands! We camp and ride a lot with some big group of freinds and the envious looks I get from everyone when we pull in, push a button and auto-level are worth the effort I put into the install! Not only is setting up and tearing down camp a cinch, this kit also solved a major pet peeve my wife had. The scissor stabilizer jacks never really "stabilized" the rig! Any time someone was walking, shifting in bed, etc.. you could feel every movement. The Ground Control is so strong and solid you don't feel a thing! I highly recommend this kit!
This system works great, really glad I installed! It certainly takes a little time and some knowledge but instructions were good and is worth the effort. My TT is pretty close to the max rated but is no problem for the jacks to lift the tires off the ground if needed to get level. Makes quick work of setting up at a camp ground and I always feel like I’m showing off when I hit auto level then go park the truck. Also makes the trailer feel very sturdy compared to scissor jacks.
Amazing product, if not a luxury product. I installed on a Coleman 1805RB. The small RV required the jacks mount in slightly different distances than the instructions due to interference from underbody components and limited space. But clearance and function has not been an issue. I was able to keep the tilt sensors within the spec using an extension plate. It took me quite a bit of time to install, but I work slow and take my time. Drilling the holes to mount the jacks took quite a bit of time. The best location on the 1805RB for the control board is more towards the back, which required modifications to cable lengths or excess cable as the system seems more designed from front mounting of the control board.
I used a second battery setup and an isolated ground to keep the RV and the Ground Control system on separate circuits. As such, both the + and - wires of the power circuit are fuse protected.
Sometimes, the jacks get stuck and throw an error. Try manually cranking them down a bit to "unstuck" them. Remember to disconnect the connectors at the Jacks to manually crank or you will fight with the Hall effect. Investing in a good Deutsch Connector kit and crimper helps when changing the cable lengths. Also investing in a hydraulic lug crimper makes the job much easier. I also used marine-grade, tin-plated copper lugs on the heavy gauge wire connections. The main power studs are too close together on the control board and large lugs get very close to shorting out. Plus they seem rather fragile when using heavy gauge wire as need for a rear install of the control board.
The operation has been smooth and relatively flawless. Remember to push both arrows on the outdoor pad to get things started. Watching the jacks level is fun and the result is good. It is really nice at night or driving rain. My RV is well under the weight limit of 10,000 lbs being a 5,000 lb setup. At times, the wheels may lift off the ground, but the RV stays solid with the four jacks down.
Great idea and engineering from Lippert.
This is life changing. Installation is well worth the time, effort, and money. Once installed, it truly took less than three minutes to deploy and level my travel trailer. Noah at etrailer was excellent to work with from beginning to end. Great customer service and support!

Great we love how easy it is to setup now. While I disconnect the truck wife hooks up the electrical. When the camper is leveling my wife and I are hooking up the water. Thats it. All done with the basics. Now the steps and slide. We are completed in less than 30 minutes from backing in.

One of the best investments I have made. You get to the camp site, turn it on and tell it to level. Step back and wait. Takes 5 to 10 minutes.
I installed it my self. I spent about a week getting every thing installed. My only problem was where to put the controller. Our camper has dual vanities so I ended up using the area under one for them for the controller and all the extra wiring. I attached all the wiring to the frame. I could have fished thru the floor system but I did not want the wiring loose so it could bounce around. My suggestion is to get the install instructions and totally understand all the components, where you want to install them before ordering the unit.

Product works great as long as you push the correct buttons and leave it alone and let it do it’s thing. You can be in the trailer while it is setting up or you have to reset the computer. Instruction tell up that. I give it a 10. One thing I did do was bolt a stackable leveling block on the pad. Once you start the set up it’s hard to run around the trailer placing them in the correct spot before the pads go down
This works great and has been the very best upgrade on any RV/Trailer I have every owned. I will never own another trailer that does not have this.

We would love to hear your updated feedback after you have it installed.
One small part was missing from my Ground Control TT. Carol Korren expedited delivery of the missing part and the UPS truck pulled up at the moment I needed the part. Fantastic customer service!

Extremely quick and easy leveling. Simply push a button and proceed to connect water and electric while the leveling system adjusts perfectly. Once leveled trailer is exceptionally stable. I added SnapPads to minimize setup time. Hitch height is quickly recalled with the Hitch Height button. Hitching is even quicker with the Curt 17520 trailer mounted WDH.

Works great,good shipping and packed we ll
I love these jacks I would recommend to anyone who has the time and know how to install these. I installed these on a Minnie plus 31BHDS 35.5 foot travel trailer. It’s hasn’t let me down yet leveling the trailer every time. Even so much that it will lift the tires off the ground on one side to achieve it. Even with the wheels off the ground all doors and cabenits work perfect. The install was tough for one person took me three full days. The way my camper was set up I couldn’t follow there instructions exactly on the placent distances of the jacks but I was within a foot and it works. It has a touch screen for in the camper which after initial set up I haven’t needed to use it. The other control i installed on the exterior front driver side and that’s the one I use every time. It’s so easy now I press 1 button and its level every time. This really makes setting up much faster and less stress I don’t have to yell back and forth with my wife which she hates finding level. Great product so far.
An excellent system but could use a few updates. I have my gripes but I’m happy with the system.
The Good – Out of the box the can bus to jack / leveling sensor wire harnesses are more than long enough to wire a 30’ trailer with plenty to spare, Installation instructions for the jacks and supporting hardware is easy to follow and once the system is set up it operates as advertised.
The bad – The instructions reference an older touchscreen and doesn’t match what’s in the box and can make getting started difficult – YouTube is definitely your friend for initial zero and calibration. Also, the new touchscreen doesn’t require as big of a cutout to mount as the instructions state and may be misleading depending on the included display – the newer panel mine came with is slimmer that the one included in older kits. The touchscreen only comes with a 6” pigtail for the power wire harness. For the price, I believe it wouldn’t have hurt to include some extra wire or a proper harness.
I recommend this system for anyone looking for a leveling system for a travel trailer but if you are planning on doing the install yourself plan on putting money aside for extra wire, splices, terminals, and clamps to support the harnesses.
It is a pleasure for me to watch the leveling system level my trailer in two minutes or less! It is the best accessory I've installed on my 22 foot Grand Design 17mke travel trailer. I did have to weld a 3 inch tall, 2 inch wide 16 inch length of steel rectangular tubing to the trailer's I-beam frame on each side to mount the rear jacks. The grey water tank hangs below the bottom of the trailer frame. The tubing gave me the clearance I needed to mount the rear jacks below the tank. I still have plenty of ground clearance when the jacks are retracted.
Do you have a question about this Camper Jack?

It has been a year since we installed the Jacks and they have been working flawlessly. There have been times when I had to manually level the trailer because the ground wasnt level enough to begin with but it is easy enough and is not a problem. The hitch height feature is great as I dont have to reset the tongue jack to hitchup. All in All I would definately recommend this system.
