meh...would be fine, I don't always even keep mine cranked down all the way. Of course from those pics you can't see if there are any other jacks/stabs in place either

But, at some point you have to release the jacks to hitch it up. That will be scary.

cdgm,
I am sure you were a friendly, caring neighbor camper and went over and brought it to his/ her attention. In return, you were rewarded with an ice cold longneck for your attentiveness.

I did try to bring it up with him but he seemed like an "expert" on trailers and life...........nice guy though but you know the feeling you get sometimes and you just back off

I did help out the guy on the other side of me .....he was having sway problems so I showed him the post here on RV.NET on setting up your hitch correctly.........the Dealer had him all messed up

LOL, it takes all kinds of people to make this life and most have little to no knowledge of what is safe to do.

Nice guy, with wheel chocks and stab jacks down, it still foolish…

If he can’t crank the jack down, replace it with a power jack for the safety of every one else…
