Opinions on SnapPads
I've done some searching here and there seem to be only a few comments on SnapPads. I am looking at them for my 310GK. Any opinions on them? Have they held up and held on during use?

Same here—I recently put them on our new Montana 3121RL, but so far have only used them one one trip. We do have a three nighter tomorrow, so will see how they do on a longer tow.

I have them, and now most of our travel buddies have them too. I wouldn't say they change the world or anything but they're easily worth the money. The only issue I had was probably my fault and the company stepped up nicely. Once you install them, you will see that there's little chance of them coming off and they still look new after quite a few trips. I still carry a couple 2x6 blocks, in case I need extra height in the rear, but have not had to use them. One less hassle with setting up and a couple places we've been required something under the jack pads. I wouldn't, and haven't, been at all hesitant to recommend them.

I put them on the front legs of my Reflection 29RS, and they work great. I was concerned with the lack of clearance on the back levelling legs, so I have not put them on there. I was hoping I could move the whole assembly up on the frame, but it is already at it's max height, so I am not comfortable making it any longer by adding an inch to the bottom.

I have had them for 1 year on our 29RS with no problems. Also still use blocks.

Well, I decided on the basis of these opinions and 681 5 star ratings on their site to buy a 6 pack of the Xtra's. I left the cart after I filled out most of the info and they sent me a $10 off coupon to entice me back so $149 all in with free shipping.
When unhitched and leveled, is it ok to raise the front jacks enough to put the pads on, or should I wait until the next time I'm hooked up to start the process?Jeff and Jen

I wouldn't raise the front jacks unless I was connected to the truck. Seems like that would put a lot of stress on the remaining jack. But that's just me. I can't support my opinion with any hard data.
BTW, I have the Snap Pads and they work fine. I can't give a glowing report because they aren't a very exciting product - at least not for me. I have them in case an RV park requires something under the jacks. I don't like using wood or plastic blocks so the Jack Pads are a better option for me.Brian & Kellie

Yeah, it seems safer to just hitch it up first. Thanks.
