Has anybody installed one of these on their 5er? I am looking into the two point, basic system just to get me some side to side leveling. I am tired of dealing with boards, getting the right height, etc.
I'd be concerned with the stiffness of the frame. Unless it is a four point lift, near the center of the frame, you could put the trailer into a twist.
We used the 4 point system for 12 years. We thought it worked really well but we finally wore the it out after all of our years of fulltiming, never spending loads of time in any one place. We decided to replace it with the Big Foot Leveling System but again the P+ was a good system. Sorry, we can't shed any info on the 2 point system. Diana

I am considering the two point system just because I want to handle side to side leveling only. Not sure how this would twist the frame anymore than driving up onto blocks of wood? I would think you would use the leveling jacks to get the 5er level side to side before you unhook from the truck. Then, as long as you get your two landing legs the same you should be fine.
We have TrailAir's "Level-Up" system which has two hydraulic jacks on each side of the 5th wheel. I believe two jacks on each side are necessary to avoid undue stress on the frame. We are very happy with the "Level-Up" system. It works GREAT!

I have the level up system also. It works very well. The system has six jacks,three on each side. Trailair did the install. They removed the factory electric front landing gear and replaced them with hydraulic landing gear. Now I can lift all four wheels off the ground. If I'm not careful it will pick the truck up off the ground too. Must remember to unhitch the truck first.

Could this system be used on a triple axle 5er? And you can use this system to do front/back as well as left/right leveling?
