First foot I ordered was just a hair over bent, thus to small.  I reordered next size up and added a washer on both sides of the tube. Works.
Happy Traveling,

Any time we're in a situation where the flip foot won't flip down, we just leave it swung back and let the front of the foot contact the ground. It's plenty strong for that.

Should be 2-1/4" You should measure it to be sure. If you remove the flip foot, you should be able to measure across where the bolt goes on the foot and you should be close to the size. Or you could measure the circumference of the tube and divide by 3.1416 which should give you the diameter if I remember my basic geometry correctly.

I have a 2017 183G and the flip jack that cam installed is not working for us. We are not able to lower it all the way to its full extension as it is too low. I am thinking about just replacing with a flat foot but wanted to see if you guys know what size tube we have - is it a 2" or 1 5/8" or 2 1/4"? 

Everything else has been very smooth, but the jack is not working for us
