HWH leveling jack foot replacement

How big of a job is it to change the foot on the front jacks? Is there a video anywhere that shows it?

It's easy. Extend your jacks. Insert shims on apposing sides of the old springs. Retract your jacks and they should be easy to remove. On the install I put the end of the new spring in a vise, bent it and inserted shims on apposing sides of the spring and installed. I would suggest you use pliers when handling the springs with shims in them. Watch this:

The springs hold the foot in place on the end of the jack cylinder. When the springs are removed, the Jack pad/foot will essentially just fall off.
