New price for JT Stabilizers

I called the dealer today and told him that JT has lowered the price. When he called them and then got back to me the price dropped about $150. Their new price is $359 down from $499. So as of Friday I will have them install a set of stabilizers on our Montana. The dealer is Wholesale Travel Sales in Lynden, Washington. It is nice to have a dealer pass on this savings even on old stock that he paid the old wholesale price.

Dyers has them for $300 plus $30 Shipping, of course if you don't install them yourself, that would be an additional cost...

You mean people have been paying $150.00 too much? Good profit margin. JMHO

By the time I pay shipping, duty, and taxes it will cost me about the same. JT's lowered it's prices on the 1st of October so this reflects in the lower prices. I guess more production means lower prices to the end user

That figures that they would drop the price after I purchased mine, I will let you all know my next large purchase so you can wait for the price to drop shortly after :-)

Okay, we have been thinking about adding these to our rig, now we are going to do it! What do you reccomend front or rear stabilizers or am I reading this wrong and it includes both? Info would help before I order. Thanks Teresa and Dave

The universality and versatility of JT's Strong Arm Jack Stabilizer#65533; is remarkable. Using a unique system of brackets, the Strong Arm attaches to any of the three main types of jacks found on RVs: scissor, electric and telescoping. By using the proper clevis and swing bolt, JT's Strong Arm Jack Stabilizer#65533; attaches to and stabilizes any of these jack systems.

SKU Type RVW Price
15-0360 Fifth Wheel Scissor Jack - front jacks 59'' apart or more $299.95
15-0362 Fifth Wheel Telescopic Jack Stabilizer $299.95
15-0361 Travel Trailer Scissor Jack Stabilizer $299.95
15-0359 Fifth Wheel Scissor Jack - front jacks 58'' apart or less $299.95

You have to measure your front jacks and then pick which type of rear stabilizer jacks that you have, and yes you get both for $299.95.

Doug, keep us updated. You may save us a few dollars.

They had a good thing going for a while, but I think when the competitor came out with the same product for $100 less, they had to do something.

I'm all for small business, and they build a good product. It doesn't bother me I paid $399 for them..........much

I must be "thick"...Not sure I understand which option I should choose??

SKU Type RVW Price
15-0360 Fifth Wheel Scissor Jack - front jacks 59'' apart or more $299.95
15-0362 Fifth Wheel Telescopic Jack Stabilizer $299.95
15-0361 Travel Trailer Scissor Jack Stabilizer $299.95

My front jacks are about 72" apart and I have telescoping rear jacks.....so, which kit do I order?

Thanks in advance for the help...

Tim,

15-0362 Fifth Wheel Telescopic Jack Stabilizer $299.95 should do the trick

That's what I thought Brad...I was nervous I was going to order the wrong set.
Thanks, Tim

P.S. I'm really impressed with your remote control setup. May be the next "mod" I attempt.....

Okay Guys..I must just not quite understand. If I order 15-0362, it will fit my Montana 3400RL: and I get the back scissor supports also? Or is the front 299$ and the back $299. also should I purchase locking wheel chocks too...To go ;between the tires. Fifth wheel set up works different than or MH did. Still getting used to the changes and MOC is a great help.

Tim,
Ironically after I placed the order online, the vendor called ME by telephone just to make sure we were ordering the right set before they shipped it. The JT folks are very nice to talk to and would be more than happy to verify the right part number as well. Thanks for the compliment!

Teresa and Dave,
When I bought ours at $399 it included the front AND rear. Feel free to call the JT folks direct and ask what is included in the new price. They are nice folks to talk to.
