How Far can the Jacks Extend that Come with the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC358590

Published 12/15/2017

Question:

As you may be able to make out from photo my 5th wheel is sitting on very uneven ground . front of RV current front landing gear is retracted as far as it will go. the rear stabilizer jacks are extended as far as they will go with extra blocks to enable stabilizers to touch. Back of RV is a good 4 feet from bumper to ground. Question is will self leveling system even work with this much variance ?

The Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC358590 is a great system that is pretty much universal and could be installed on your RV, but it will won't be able to extend far enough for your RV to sit level where it is at without utilizing blocks like you are currently doing.

The rear jacks have a total travel of 12-1/2" and the front jacks have a total travel of 36". If your trailer was turned around you may be able to find a way to make it work without using too many blocks, but your best bet would be to find a different spot to park your RV.

I do realize that moving your RV to a different spot may be harder than it sounds, but that would be the best solution. you could then install the Ground Control 3.0 to make leveling your camper much easier!
