    rt178 trailer jack ?

    I have seen where a number of people have upgraded their jack on the rt series . I was wondering why ? I noticed that on my 178 there is a lot of flex when I push sideways on the front of the boat .If this is one of the issues others have had did a new jack fix it or did it fix other issues ? It seems to me the mounting of the jack is part of the problem and not the jack its self .

    I thought the factory jack was just plain "cheap" and I also found the boat hard to move with that jack. The Fulton F2 is a good quality, heavy duty replacement that makes the boat much easier to roll around in the garage.
