Bent one of the rear stab jacks on my 178 when setting up this past weekend and need a replacement. Didn't lift the trailer with it, the tounge slid down a slight incline which toured the jack and bent it beyond use. Removed the jack but don't see any manufacturing info on it. Does anyone know of a replacement jack brand that I can order online?

Always "chocks first, chocks last" usually one runaway trailer gets that procedure pretty ingrained. Hope no one was hurt.

Pretty sure this is what's on our pod... http://www.adventurerv.net/bal-lopro-sj24-scissor-jack-5000-24008-p-29993.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwpsGqBRCioKet--bp_QcSJADCtbsbQPARamyBv090EY3JDY3iyv35hkALRClIc167pSk9KBoC_Sjw_wcB&utm_campaign=partsfeed_ppc&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=Froogle - Stabilizer .

Thanks. Had the pod chocked but with those cheap plastic chocks and one wheel just pivoted due to tounge jack not being on a level surface. No injuries except to the jack. Lesson learned and ready for our next adventure!

If you use the caster on the tongue jack you need to chock it too.
