HELP / 22 FB Bambi owners / Jacking Point

Hello to all. looking for jacking points for a 22FB Bambi. I located the street side, behind the step, triangle steel plate with the word JACK
I cannot locate any jack point on the curb side and no word JACK.
Help would be appreciated... Thanks.. Dave

My 2019 Sport has no stickers or triangle plates at jack points, a mechanic at the dealership told me to place the jack on the axle near the wheel! Sending AS pictures which they will mark to show me where.

There is no problem jacking your unit from the axle. As close as you can to the wheel or where axle mounts to the frame. The axel already supports the weight of the trailer. Jacking from the axle does not change that.

Our 2015 22FB has 2 square plates with stickers. The door side is between steps and stabilizer at the frame. The other side is at the same location in front of the stablizer.

I looked and looked for that sticker and those metal plates. Problem was I wasn’t far enough aft, they are just in front of rear stabilizing jacks.

Marking the jack points with stickers

Our 2018 Sport 22FB has a sticker to the rear of the pull-out step. In large letters it reads 'JACK' and has a very small red arrow beside it pointing toward the street side where, a few inches away is the square 'true lift point' metal 'tag' attached to the AS frame. The JACK (with tiny arrow) sticker is DANGEROUSLY MISLEADING in the dark and at a roadside situation where the person doing the jacking isn't aware that the sticker IS NOT THE JACK POINT. I've bought four 'LIFT HERE' stickers I found on Amazon to point to the real lift points on the frame rails.
