Automatic Leveling Jacks with Touchpad Controls IPO Electric Rear Jacks

What type of jacks are these offered as a option on the 2022 Delano? Are they only on the rear? Are they not hydraulic?

The Thor website build section shows 2 options, an electronic stabilizer for $1463 and automatic levelers for $5175. For five grand, you'll get a four point hydraulic system. I would expect the stabilizer system is also four point. Maybe someone will pick this up with a better answer.

On my 2018 Thor Siesta, the electric stabilizers were just in the back of the coach and not the front. They were there to help with the motion of walking around inside.

The "stab jacks" usually are a self contained unit. A tubular bar mounted horizontally under the rear of the coach with electric motor driven scissor jacks on each end. Each scissor jack is controlled from it's own rocker (up/down) switch inside the coach... likely near the coach doorway. They are for stabilizing only, although they can be used to help level a slightly off-level coach... but only the rear.

That's a pricey option for hydraulic leveling! Unless they have increased dramatically, I thought the aftermarket Big Foot fully automatic system was around $4k or slightly less? The manual system was around $3k.

All good info. It seems strange on the Thor site it says REAR jacks not all around. I will call Thor and see what they say.

The electric stabilizer jacks are only at the rear. Hydraulic leveling jacks are front AND rear... 4-point.

The design of the stabilizers probably prevent mounting in the front due to ground clearance issues.

You probably could hire a professional to mount custom stabilizer jacks up front, but by the time you pay for that you may as well invest in hydraulic levelers.
