Opinions on Lippert 6 pt. leveling system

While a might agree with some of the comments about the ease of leveling your rig that's not what I like. I found it was no problem to level my 5er and almost as fast as the auto level.

Rig Stability.

When it has leveled itself and all 6 legs are on the ground there is zero shake or anything else. Although the amount of movement never bothered me the difference is night and day between front electric jacks, rear stabilizer jacks, and tire locks. I never did get around to JT Strongarms (next on the list) but there is no doubt in my mind they are going to be nowhere as stable as the 6 point system.

I agree completely. I have a pair of X-Chocks that I've never used even once because the rig is so stable.

Works great, no troubles. Get the leveling system!

If you can get the Lippert hydraulic 6 point Level up for $2000 you are a fool not get it. The special at the Rally is over $4000.

You can retrofit an older system, but it's not cheap. Had it done to our 2010 Montana back in 2011 and cost me $3200 at that time, and that was a special deal. Would guess it's in the $4500 to $5000 range by now.
It's like Disc Brakes, once you have it, you'll never have another 5er without either, Disc Brakes or Level-Up.

Are they available for retrofitting to a 5er with the older system?

We traded in our 2007 Montana that had the old standard landing gear and crank down supports in the back for a 2014 Big Sky Montana and it came with the 6 pt. hydraulic Level-up system...LOVE IT! So nice and so quick. The older you get the more you do not want to be bending over, crawling under the 5er, etc... and the Level-up system eliminates all that. Go for it, it will be some of the best money spent.

Have had ours for four years. Works like a champ! No problems at all.

A few electronic glitches, but overall worth the money.

Best invention since the wheel.
