I have had the rico titan jacks on my 2010 jayco designer for a about a year they work fine they are rated at 5,000 lb. each total of 20,000 lbs .It is not a auto leveling system that I have . they send you two new landing gear jacks to replace your originals and two short jacks that you can bolt by drilling the frame or welding them to the frame ,I welded mine just behind the rear wheels . The system comes with two remotes 1 is rf and can operate the jacks from anywhere near the trailer the other is hard wired incase you lose the 1st one or it doesn't work
the remote will run any jack separately or any 2 at the same time like 2 frort or 2 rt or 2 lt or rear and it has a button for all up .
I have lifted my trailer tires completely off the ground with no problems . when setting up I use 2 front to unhook then raise or lower to level front to back then lower rear jacks till both are on the ground then raise low side to level right to left and if I think I need more weight on jacks to make the trailer more stable just hit all up . reverse steps to tear down . I have never had a problem and have probably set up 30 times since installed .
one caution measure the length of your current front landing gear main tube and see if theirs is as long mine were 5in. longer than theirs and I had to relocate the brackets on the front of my trailer which may not be easy . depending on access to the mounts .
these jacks also run 2 to 3 times as fast factory jacks which speeds up hooking up process.
My daughter and son in law have a new 5vr with lippert hyd leveling system and I think mine is more versatile and as easy to use.
