Electric, wide-stance rear stabilizer jacks?

Our HT 26.5 RLS has the electric rear jacks and they do come down at the same speed but when one of them contacts the ground, or blocks, before the other, it stops and waits for the other one to "catch up" so to speak. Then they go down at the same rate until you stop pushing on the button.

X2

We have Ultrafab with 2 motors and 2 switches. Independent control over each leg.

Thats how they work on our creek as well. I love them.

yep, the jack arms are attached to a frame that slide back and forth in another frame bolted to the undercarriage. As one arm contacts the ground (or blocks) if the other is not yet in contact, the arm frame will be forced to slide towards the arm that hasn't yet contacted anything. Once they both are in contact the trailer begins lifting. If both arms have been lowered but are not yet in contact, you can reach in there, grab and arm, and raise/lower it causing the arm frame to slide back & forth.

Thanks for the explanation. It's not magic after all. I didn't want to use up my last few brain cells trying to figure it out.

X-2, I have the UltraFab single motor. It is self leveling. It's magic.

Have a new Jayco FW (see sig). Yes, they come down at the same time and we put a block under them.

I have a jayco 27.5 rlts and yes both go down at the same time both have motors on them
