5th wheel stabilizers

I foolishly raised the front of my Arctic Fox 27-5L without retracting the rear stabilizers. Oops. The two stabilizer bars on the right side stabilizer are now crooked as a dog's hind leg. I tried straightening them, but with any load on them, they just start bending again. Surely I can't be the only one this has happened to. Anyone know where I can get new stabilizer parts?

5th wheel stabilizers

The obvious starting point would be Arctic Fox to at least get a size or part number, if not the whole replacement. With specs, you could try a place like rvpartscenter.com and see what they have.

I'm guessing you'll have to replace the whole stabilizer assembly. Good Luck!

If you can identify the brand, parts might be an option from your local dealer. Worth a try.
