I finished the install last and put the JT's to the test.I let the kids loose in the back while I was on the bed up front and there is only a slight bit of movement now and I may be able to get rid of that after I use these a few times.Money well spent and the people I spoke to at JT were great people willing to do whatever to help out w/any install problems.

ABC40kids: Do you put then on both front and back? Also, would you mind terribly giving us a ballpark $$ figure? Thanks

I got mine from RV Wholesalers $299.00 delivered,front and back.I had to add the 2x3 angle iron on the back but other than that it was'nt that bad to install.It took me awhile to find the angle iron,Lowes and Home Depot did'nt have it.I ended up paying a guy $50.00 at a Iron shop.

Did you do the rear jack pre-load thing? That got the last bit of wiggle out on the Eagle.

I level it front/rear then lower the front about half an inch. Then lower the rear jacks and tighten the strongarms. I then raise the front up to where it's a hair nose high and set the front arms. Then lower to level. That takes any "slop" out of the arms and makes it solid.
