Default Replacement Stabilizer

On our first trip out with our 2012 189FBS (I'm typing this at the campground), I noticed that one of the front built in stabilizers is bent significantly. Since the stabilizers seem to be strong enough for this trailer, I don't think that it bent because of the weight of the trailer. IMHO, I think that the previous owner must have left it down by accident when they started towing. Anyway, it is still functional but I would like to replace it. Does anyone know the make and model (and maybe a source) for the stabilizers on this model Fun Finder? I've found similar ones on the Internet, but they are not as long as the ones on my trailer.

What type of stabilizer? Scissor or drop arm? Powered or manual?

The 189FBS has drop arm manual stabilizers.

There used to be bunch of companies that made these, but now I think BAL is the only one. Hopefully they made yours. Otherwise you might try an RV junkyard.

Mine electric arm style jack built by Lipert, but changed them to a manual stabilizer because the Liperts didn’t have a manual over-ride. We had one seize up and i had to remove it before I could move the trailer. Poor design.
