[QUOTE="mudgee hunter, post: 580408, member: 9124"] Was it the jack stability winder? Stability legs arnt really designed for big lifts. Always use your jockey wheel to raise the front and back of the van when possible. Put negative fall towards the front of the van firstly, then wind the rear down freely till almost touching the ground. Then raise the front up by the jockey wheel a tad over level. ( the rear should now be loaded of weight) Lower the front legs till almost touching the ground. Then lower the jockey wheel so all 4 legs are loaded. Balance out till level. Keep the threads on stabiliser legs clean. Free of grit. I made up a replica winch rod that went in a mates cordless drill to do the bulk of unloaded winding. Loves it. The thread on the jockey wheel will handle wear and tear much better than the thread of 10/12 mm thread on the legs. Much cheaper to replace as well. [/QUOTE]
