Electric Jack upgrade - as easy as it looks?
So I found a close-out camper that is close enough to what I'd order that it might work for the right price, but its missing the crucial electric jacks. Its not pre-wired either. Looking at the kits...

I'm in the process of changing over from CrappiJacks to Reico Titan. I have a pretty heavy Eagle Cap dual slide camper, no clue why Eagle Cap chose these jacks. It's been my biggest complaint with the camper... They are under tremendous strain, and frequently engage the safety clutch.
The Reico's are rated at 600lbs more per corner, had them on my last AF... Should have swapped them when I had the chance-at one point I had both campers in my yard.
Anyway... I already have relocated and completely rewired the controller. That's another complaint I have with EC - WHY did you guys put the controller in the water access hatch that's INSIDE the bed when the camper's on the truck? You can't change a jack fuse when it's on the truck. And they blew several times...
Today all I have to do is swap the jacks themselves and I'm done. I'm taking lots of pics, I'll post when done.
