What is the difference between a Stabilizing Jack and a Support/Leveling Jack?
A. An RV Stabilizing Jack is meant to do just that – stabilize your unit and stop unnecessary shifting and movement. There are two units to accommodate different height requirements – the 57361 and 57365 Stabilizing Jacks are engineered for heights between 11″ to 17,” while the 57371 Telescoping Stabilizing Jack is designed for height requirements of 16″ to 30″. Olympian also offers a Cross Frame Stabilizing Jack (57461, 57481, 57501). A leveling jack, such as the 57401, 57421 and 57441 Scissor Jacks are designed to physically move your RV upwards as needed to level your RV. Generally one jack mounted at each corner is the optimum and these jacks can either be installed yourself or by you local RV dealer. Leveling jacks also serve to stabilize the RV. Finally, a stable and level RV is much easier to live with and your appliances work more efficiently too. A definite a must-have.
