I had to replace one of my stabilizer jacks after using them to lift the TM in order to replace the tires. It would go up and down but would not lift the TM. As I recall, Ed told me that they were not designed to replace a jack and that's why the threads had stripped. Since then I've used bottle jacks with no further problems with the stabilizer jacks.
