Has anyone added this leveling system to thier 2013 Montana Mountaineer 37.5 FLF 5th wheel?

I have the Lippert frame on my rig and the instruction manual sound easy enough. Threading the wire harness will be the most time consuming I think. I am at the point in my life that I kinda like "easy" and quick set up. I like the idea of being able to re-level if needed without having to hook up to the TV.
We might be eating hot dogs and beans for a while to pay for it.

I have posted this question on other sites as well, so if you see it someplace else, just skip it. Don't need flames or duplicate answers.:D

I love my Lippert 3.0 Ground Control system. It makes it very easy and quicker to set up. One down side is you have to be careful backing over curbs and other things like stumps with the back of the camper. There is only 7"-8" clearance above the ground on some campers. I did not install mine, got the Montana High Country 305RL with them already installed.

One thing - be sure you don't need the 6 point system. Lippert has a chart that determines the max distance between the rear jacks and the wheels. I think you will be right on the edge. Etrailer says OK for 4 point, but you may want to check.

I did not install on a Montana but it was a fifth wheel and was real easy. Rear jacks are drill and bolt on and run wires to basement to controller. Front jacks I did by hooking up to truck and raising old jacks all the way up and unbolt and remove from bottom (If you need more clearance to get jack out you can use jacks to raise camper all the way up and block up frame and lower camper onto blocks) After all jacks are secured and wires run and power hooked to batteries your good to go. We have used ours for 3 years with no issues.
