    303 Rear leveling jacks

    Hi All,

    We have a 2017 Reflection 303 with the leveling system.

    Question:
    Does anyone know how many inches above the ground the rear leveling jacks should be when in the retracted mode?

    The jacks look low to me and I have had two people passing us trying to tell us that our rear leveling jacks are down

    I have the same fifth wheel as yours.
    I raised my rear jacks one hole and the pad clearance from ground is now: Right 7-3/4" Left 7-1/4"
    I then realized the mounting brackets were not welded at the same height. The left bracket is lower by 1/2" than the right.
    In any case, I have not had any issues due to the height of the rear jack pads.

    Thanks very much. I will raise my rear jacks but will check the welding height first.

    The Lippert installation manual reads that the rear leveling jacks need to have a minimum of 7" clearance even if they pass the string test. You can download the manual from the Lippert website.

    8" on my 303. The mounting brackets are bolted as high as they will go. As close as they are to the rear wheels helps a lot with clearance issues.
