    Took possession of my 2021 303RLS

    This is one nice fifth wheel. I had a little chucking with my Pullrite bringing it home from Northern Ohio. It may need a little break in as on smooth roads it seemed fine. I hit a lot of bumps with road construction. The only issue I had when I got it home was that the glass panel on the fireplace came off in tow but didn’t break. It was laying on the floor. I may find a better way to secure it. I also didn’t realize that the Jenson radio was the only thing wired for play on the ceiling speakers and not the TV. I ordered a budget sound bar and subwoofer for the TV. Has anyone had issues with the rear jacks hitting the ground? I am surprised that they do not fold up or raise higher. Seems like a speed bump or uneven terrain could damage them.

    pull out that Jenson radio so you can see the backside, (mine has the Furrion), and look for audio inputs. I found the old Left/Right red/white plugs and just bought a patch cable from the TV out to the Radio. Switch radio to AUX, turn down TV volume to 1 (not 0, otherwise no sound comes out audio jacks on my TV). We love to watch movies this way.

    Congratulations on the new 303 ! There's alot of us 303 fans out there !

    Over the years since GDRV started building more and more models with auto leveling systems, a number of folks have shared both pictures and posts of damaged legs/feet due to dragging in less than level situations. Many have raised the legs a bolt hole or two to help.

    Hopefully someone who has done this will chime in.

    It actually has a 3/8” audio jack on the front of the Jenson which can be run to the TCL smart TV. Not sure why they didn’t run it hardwired. Instead the sales guy says you have to put it on auxiliary and leave the cabinet door open. You actually can play music from the Jenson CD player/radio through the TV speakers which is a bit odd. I have sound bar and subwoofer on order and will put the subwoofer in the cabinet with the DVD player and mount the sound bar behind the TV. There is a hole in the bottom of the cabinet to fish cables which are hidden behind the TV.

    I read the thread on that posted back in 2017. I may go that route. I have a pull-through pole barn and the back jacks drug on the wet ground after a bunch of rain when I pulled it back into the pole barn.

    Nice 303 Radcolt, no problems with the jacks hitting on mine. Curious to see how your chucking plays out, I have it as well with my Pullrite superlite 2400 with the puck system.

    My #303 is a 2017 model. I was able to raise the rear jacks one notch only otherwise it hits the floor above. Never have hit anything or drug over where it touched however it sure looks low to me still. Repair time to move both sides was about 30-60 minutes. Heavy but easy to do. I think torque was about 60-80# ?? I found some were loose from factory.

    I have a 2020 303RLS, and mine has a Furion radio. on the back of my TV there are 3 HDMI connections. One of the HDMI sockets is special, it has a return sound or something like that. Anyway there is a HDMI cable from the radio to the TV. On mine it was hooked to the wrong HDMI on the TV. It has to be hooked up to the special HDMI socket. It is a little finicky getting the sound to come through the overhead speakers, but it does work.

    Congratulations on the 303. We have the same unit and love it.
    Never has an issue with the jacks hitting or bottoming out.
    We purchase a Bose sound bar, it is awesome when we do watch movies.

    Good Luck and Enjoy

    Congrats. We have lippert jacks on our keystone and thought they were too low. We moved them up one bolt. Manufacturer said you just need 6” clearance. We have 12k miles on the rig in 2 years with no issue hitting anything.

    We’re shopping for a 303 as well. Local dealership quoted $54k. I think it’s way too high. That’s only 10% off MSRP. Used to paying more like 25-30%+ off. I know there’s a supply issue and demand has peaked. Can you share what you paid?
