Question:

Are any of these jacks American made ? Will buy a set of four if made in USA. Also : The jacks you show with 10,000 lb weight limit. Is that per jack, or for the pair ? Do you make any that are more rust proof ?? Have replaced my jacks twice because of rust. And my camper is a 2010 model. Thanks

Expert Reply:

The stabilizing jacks are all made overseas, and in regards to the capacities, they are on a per-jack basis.

So the Scissor Stabilizer Jacks with Handle - 18-3/4" Lift - 10,000 lbs - Qty 4 # TJSCHD-24-4 have a 2,500 lb capacity per jack.

The Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jacks with Handle - 24" Lift - 12,000 lbs - Qty 2 # LC285326 have a 10,000 lbs capacity (5,000 lbs per jack)

And the Stromberg Carlson Leveling Scissor Jack Set - 24" Lift - 10,000 lbs - Qty 2 # JSC-24 has a 5,000 lb capacity per jack.

We don't make these jacks, only sell them, but for the most rust-proof option I recommend the Stromberg Carlson # JSC-24 due to their high-quality powder coat that is designed to resist corrosion. I've added links to video reviews of each of these parts for you to check out as well.
