Equalizer makes some electric stabilizers. I have MorRyde proto-typing a version now as well.

You want it? The motor is spoken for, but the mass of metal- I figured I'd offer it up on Craigslist as scrap metal.

Photo-typing? Is that the epitome of "a picture is worth a thousand words"?

I do like MorRyde's stuff. Are you/they doing something for motorhomes? or for trailers, as well?

I'd like to do the same, but it's too rich for my blood. I wouldn't be buying these if it wasn't for the great UHaul parking lot of twenty-one-six.

We will see. I'm in Florida now and am headed north after April. Will we overlap?

Tampa, Orlando, and then bouncing around a bit. I have to check with OC to see if we overlap.

Let me take more pictures- it's a pretty mangled mess. I'm not sure how useful it is for anything but scrap.

Just swapped emails with Stromberg Carlson and they're just selling the Lippert stabilizers. That was pretty disappointing.

It looks like this is an honest-to-goodness separate product. What's crazy is that Ultra-Fab also has another electric stabilizer that IS the same Lippert stabilizer.

The one you linked to has 2 switches and doesn't self-level. That will require some modifications to my install as I only have space for a single switch now. There's always freaking something.

It seems Lippert has the only self-leveling electric stabilizer out there.

What I did was to cut out back of box with Dremel, and insert switch from backside without cutting any wires

Ok, these are how the old motor is wired in. My manual jacks come tomorrow or Thursday, so I need to pull everything down.

I called my father-in-law and he confirmed, just cut them.
