Can Reese Landing Gear Jacks # RP500708 Install on RV with Shorter Bracket Dimensions
Published 07/27/2021
Question:
Jamison, you had answered my questions about the Bulldog/ Reese landing gear jacks. Will thet fit my 2018 wildcat 30gt without modifying the existing welded jack mounts? Thanks

Thanks for the picture of the jacks you have on your 2018 Wildcat 30GT. The distance between your jack mounting brackets is going to be too close for the Reese jacks part # RP500708 to fit directly. Yours will need to be moved out a few inches so that they match up to the jacks. It is interesting that your brackets are that close together. They must have been moved at some point as there is basically an industry standard for this dimension which is what the # RP500708 fits.
