Review on 🔧 Efficient BAL R.V. Scissor Jack - 24-Inch Deluxe Leveling with 20037 Crank Handle Set by Sam Thorpe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Significant upgrade, Made in USA

Admittedly not a fair comparison to my OEM jacks that were installed on my Viking retractable RV, the original jacks don't show a rating but I'm sure they are lighter . After several years of occasional use, 3 originals had bent main bolts causing them to wobble a lot when raising or lowering and not stabilizing. Didn't want to deal with it again so upgraded and chose BAL because of 'Made in USA' and a rating of £7500. You can clearly see the difference in screw size. They also weigh exactly twice as much as the Chinese versions (14lb 10oz vs 7lb 5oz on my scale) due to the thicker steel. It would be nice if the hole patterns matched, but I'll have to re-drill. As already mentioned, the box is completely unsuitable for transport and has been damaged. But no missing parts or damage other than a few minor scratches, which obviously isn't a big deal given the app.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • -
