What jacks to get to support open slide out

[Bethy-JAY]

I would like advice on what kind of jacks I should buy to temporarily support my slide out. I leave it open for the good weather months and have been told I should do this. It’s the dining table one and is quite long. Any other advice on setting up, etc? Thanks.

Do NOT use jacks under the slide outs. They are not needed nor required. Plus, if a tire or leveling jack goes down, the result and pressure of the jack on the slide will not be pretty.

My Montana has it slides out constantly except when it is going down the road. That's 12+ years with no slide jacks and no problems.

I second what Carl has said

I tried jacks and the only thing it did was open up a gap at the top when I tried to level. It was just better to not do anything

My camper is jacked up, so even if a tire goes flat, the slide out can’t collapse. Any suggestions for jacks?

Jacks under a slide are not recommended.

The slides today do not require jacks regardless of how unit is parked,IMHO.

Carl is as usual spot on again. Listen.

What about on older models, I have a 2010 3750?

I would not do it for any slides on any models or years, the slides are not designed for that. you are just asking for trouble with possible damage to slides

While I agree with the above, and since you’re convinced you want jacks you could try something like these. Note it would be easy to cut down to get to a more slide friendly height. You could probably also find something similar for considerably less. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/...MIz5qsrfzQjQMVUTbUAR0OIjqBEAQYBCABEgI3QvD_BwE
