My 2004 MH needs better brakes

Never said to be crawling around under there and when I use the jacks to raise for working, I always set a floor jack in there, as well.
Tell me though and when have you ever heard of a coach come slamming down to the ground, with a jack failure? Maybe a slow and leaking down process, but slamming down and not leaving any appreciable ground clearance, next to never, but then I've never been one to say never.
There's a lot of campgrounds in America alone and there's thousands upon thousands of coaches with their front wheels in the air, as we speak. As for strength, they're plenty strong and will hold a lot more than the coach, if truth be told and just as long as a hose doesn't burst. They have to be, cuz in terms of liability, misuse of a product, is indeed, the use of a product.

Several years ago in the AZ desert, a boondocker camped next to us had a 40' DP with the front wheels off the ground due to fully extending the leveling jacks and using 2X8 blocking beneath the pads. After a particularly gusty, cross windy night, my neighbors decided to depart at sun up. Their front jacks wouldn't retract because both the pistons were bent. No problem, two days and $2,500 later they were on their way.
