4. Repeat steps 1-3 for opposite leveler leg keeping the mounting positions
approximately the same distance behind axle.
5. Cross brace attachment - Attach top cross brace brackets (
each jack under the tab on the jack using 3/8 ˝ carriage bolts and 3/8 ˝
nuts and torque to 20 ft-lbs. Have top cross brace bracket openings fac-
ing opposite directions, one forward and one rearward. Attach each
