Quad pump automatic leveling system for 2010+ RAM 5500 chassis Class C motorhomes. 12,000 lb capacity per jack with 16" stroke and lifetime cylinder warranty.
The Bigfoot AKQ-D55001 brings the proven quad pump technology to RAM 5500 chassis-based Class C motorhomes, delivering the ultimate in automatic leveling convenience and long-term reliability. Designed specifically for 2010 and newer RAM 5500 chassis, this system combines one-touch automatic operation with the revolutionary quad pump architecture that has made Bigfoot the most trusted name in RV leveling. Instead of a single overworked central pump, the AKQ-D55001 places four individual marine-grade power units—one at each corner—resulting in nearly 4x the pump life expectancy by running each unit only 25% of the time.
Built by Quadra Manufacturing in White Pigeon, Michigan with 100% American-made components, this complete leveling system features four QEI-16 powder-coated hydraulic cylinders rated at 12,000 lbs each with an impressive 16" stroke for tackling even the most challenging terrain. Every cylinder is machined in-house, hand-assembled by skilled technicians, and 100% leak tested before leaving the facility—all backed by a lifetime warranty. The weatherproof steel housings allow power units to be mounted outside in the elements, freeing up valuable interior storage space. With massive 100 square inch Bigfoot pads, all-up safety features, manual override capability, and emergency retract functionality, the AKQ-D55001 delivers professional-grade performance designed specifically for the RAM 5500's heavier-duty chassis requirements.
