Bigfoot MQ-DPA1 Manual Leveling System — Class-A Diesel Pusher Quad Pump

Heavy-duty quad pump manual leveling for Class-A diesel pusher motorhomes 24,000–40,000 lbs. Four double-acting 17,000 lb QEII-24 cylinders with 18" stroke, lifetime cylinder warranty, 344 lbs complete.

Why Choose the Bigfoot MQ-DPA1?

The Bigfoot MQ-DPA1 brings the proven quad pump architecture and heavy-duty QEII-24 cylinder platform to diesel pusher owners who prefer precise hands-on control over their leveling. Where automatic systems handle the leveling process for you, the MQ-DPA1's manual control panel puts you in direct command—operate all four cylinders simultaneously to quickly stabilize, then fine-tune each corner individually with LED retract indicators showing you exactly where each jack stands at a glance. This is the system of choice for experienced diesel pusher owners who trust their own eyes and prefer the control that manual operation delivers.

Designed specifically for diesel pusher motorhomes between 24,000 and 40,000 lbs on Freightliner M2, International Durastar, Heavy Duty Ford F53, and compatible chassis, the MQ-DPA1 is also the ideal direct replacement for discontinued Attwood and Powergear leveling systems on 2007 and newer pushers. The four double-acting QEII-24 cylinders—rated at 17,000 lbs each with 18" of stroke—are machined in-house at Quadra's White Pigeon, Michigan facility, hand-assembled, and 100% leak tested before shipping. Each of the four independent marine-grade power units mounts outdoors in a protective weatherproof steel housing, running just 25% of the time compared to a single central pump—delivering nearly four times the service life. At 344 lbs complete with all brackets, hoses, pumps, controls, and cylinders, the MQ-DPA1 is a serious system for serious coaches, backed by Bigfoot's lifetime cylinder warranty and made entirely in America.

Manual vs. Automatic: Which Diesel Pusher System Is Right for You?

Both systems use the same QEII-24 cylinders and quad pump architecture on the same diesel pusher chassis. The key difference is how the leveling is initiated and managed:

Feature MQ-DPA1 Manual (This Unit) AKQ-DPA1 Automatic
Operation Style
Manual — User Operates All Controls
One-Touch Fully Automatic
Leveling Method
User Operates All 4 Simultaneously Then Individually
System Auto-Levels to Programmed Level Plane
Setup Speed
Longer — Requires Active User Operation
Faster — Press and Walk Away
User Control
Maximum — Full Manual Command of Each Jack
System Controlled — Manual Override Available
LED Indicators
Individual LED Per Cylinder
Auto Panel Status Lights

QEII-24 — 17,000 lbs / 18" Stroke
Pump Design
Quad (4 Independent Units)
Quad (4 Independent Units)
Best For
Owners Who Prefer Hands-On Control
Owners Who Want Maximum Convenience

Both systems deliver identical heavy-duty performance on the same diesel pusher chassis. Choose the MQ-DPA1 if you prefer complete manual control; choose the AKQ-DPA1 if you want fully automatic one-touch convenience. Not sure which is right for your coach? Call us at 1-866-332-7881.

Quad Pump vs. Central Pump Systems

Feature Bigfoot Quad Pump (MQ-DPA1) Traditional Central Pump
Pump Design
4 Independent Power Units (1 Per Corner)
1 Central Pump Serves All Jacks
Pump Runtime
Each Pump Runs 25% of the Time
Single Pump Runs 100% of the Time
Expected Pump Life
Nearly 4x Longer Lifespan
Baseline (More Frequent Replacement)
Storage Space
Mounts Outside — Zero Interior Space Used
Takes Up Storage Compartment Space
Failure Risk
4 Independent Systems — No Single Point of Failure
Single Point of Failure for All Jacks
Maintenance
Less Frequent Service Required
More Frequent Pump Replacement

On a heavy diesel pusher coach, reliability is everything. The quad pump design's dramatically extended service life, outdoor-mountable housings, and redundant independent systems make it the clear choice for coaches in the 24,000–40,000 lb range.
