Pleasant surprise installing JT Strongarms

With the new 33CKTS in the storage yard over the winter I ordered up JT Strongarms from Tweetys to install on a nice day.

Yesterday was that day.....

What a pleasant surprise it was when I lifted the spare tire out of the way to see what was on the other side before drilling the holes and there they were already predrilled.... Plus as an added bonus predrilled blocks already welded to the frame for the side arms along with the second from bottom holes on the legs drilled out to 1/2 inch......

Needless to say the stabilizers went on in no time flat......

Thank you Lippert for making my life easier yesterday!

Good for you!
I didn't have as much prep as you but I DID have the two holes pre-drilled front and center. Even that helped!

Our Columbus 320rs already had 4 points ready to install the JT strongarms, I use the BAL version that has a large nut with a ratchet tool instead of the "T" handle that can fall out while on the road. Good deal on them also from Amazon.
