Power jack retrofit

Hey all. Buying an AS Sport 22’. Have asked dealer about installing a power jack. They’re suggesting either:

-Travelers Choice

-Super Jack 3500

What would folks reco? First is half the price. Second looks more heavy duty but I’m a newbie. Don’t know much!

Thanks.

You referring to your tongue jack or stabilizer jacks?
Why not use the ones that airstream uses on the classics?

Mean Tongue Jack. RV Pro is the one I’m currently looking at.

Here's my $0.02.
I never heard of RV Traveller's choice.
If you google traveller's choice the entire first page is about luggage.
It's $189.
You're getting dangerously close to the price of a name brand jack.
If the dealer's installing it, how much is he charging?
Why not do it yourself? It's three bolts and one wire.

The super jack 3500 is fine.
But you could buy a 4500 for $211 on Amazon

The husky is what I hear everyone replaces their jack with on the classic.

Could have done it myself but taking delivery this week and figured it would be great to have it from day one and our first outing.

RV Pro is what the dealer I’m buying from will install.
