Thor Synergy Stabilizer Parts 2018

Hello,
Found out something I did not want to know. My RV can be moved with jack/stabilizer down.


Did not take my walk around RV, stupid, before moving.


No major damage but bent something and one will not fully retract.



Manually I can force it, but electric motor will not. Electric retracts it 90% so we can use the RV.



Does anyone know the specs on the stabilizer? Assume Lippert but cannot find anything on their website.



Will crawl around and look for serial numbers and model numbers. Raining at the moment here in Houston.



There is no information in the Thor's Owner's website. The jacks are shown in several drawings but no mention in Documentation.


Regards/thanks,

I learned that lesson as well a couple of years ago. I was leaving the house to go on a trip and while distracted I put the coach in drive. As soon as the gear selector passed 'R', the jacks starting retracting and I just held my foot on the brake. The coach didn't move, just came down off the jacks and all was fine. There are a bunch of dealers along the Katy Freeway so you shouldn't have a problem getting them serviced.

Smile 👍I got Lucky with Jack!

Thanks for the reply.

Took a closer look and realized nothing was bent. Every time ran jack up and down it came up higher. So just twisted and bolts holding in twisted position.

Put it down about halfway.

And give it a good knock with a ten pound sledge hammer.

It works perfectly now!
Regards/thanks,
