Question:

Do ARK87FR and ARK34FR have the same load rating? My Turtleback Getaway trailer has the ARK34FR corner steadies and they have performed well but are worn out. I am looking to upgrade to a higher load rating if available. Thanks

Hey Kevin! the Ark XO Drop Down Corner # ARK87FR has a support capacity of 1,925 lbs per jack. For some reason a capacity made its way onto the Ark Drop Down Corner Steadies # ARK34FR page and others like it which will need to be corrected. However, these do not have an actual capacity since they're only designed for stabilization. The XO is the only one rated to hold any significant amount of weight. It looks like you went ahead and grabbed the # ARK87FR so you made the right choice.

Hey Kevin, how did the new Ark XO corner steadies work out on your Turtleback Getaway trailer? It’d be great to hear if the higher load rating made a noticeable difference. Your update could make it easier for others choosing between these two models.

@RobinHthe ARK XO corner steadies are much sturdier and I can lift higher with confidence knowing they can take the load.,The trade off is less lift height but this is easily resolved adding wood block when additional height is needed. I wore the standard ARK Stabilizers out but these new Heavy duty ARK XO stabilizers are showing no sign of wear so I highly recommend them if you need to lift additional weight or have a high usage.
