Electric landing legs

Has anyone installed the Bulldog electric landing legs for a fifth wheel. I was planning to replace my present electric landing with hydraulic landing gear but the price for me would be between $3000.00 and $4000.00. Pretty pricey for a 2009 fifth wheel.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Wayne
  • Having bought and sold three fifth wheel trailers in my time, I would advise that doing this kind of upgrade is only worthwhile if you plan to keep this unit for a long period. I would only consider it on a top of the line ($80k or more) fiver. I don't think many of these $3k to $4k spent will be retrievable when selling a used trailer at 10 years, or so.

    Anybody looking to buy a 10 year old fiver is looking for a bargain and is not too likely to be influenced, that much, by these jacks.
