The stabilizer jack has a bolt you attach your wrench to. I have finally lost one of them... twice before I found them on the ground before I left site.
Anyone know where to get this bolt???

You lost the long bolt that goes completely through the stabilizer? If so, how? All of mine have expanded sections on the shank that keep it from being able to pull through the bolt head end of the assembly.
If what I am imagining is what you are dealing with then I would be ordering a new BAL stabilizer.
No... I lost that nut on the end you put your wrench on, its help in place by only a pin thru it. I put a key in it when I found the last one that fell out.
Got it, thanks.
I have never seen a setup like that before, all 6 of mine are the BAL stabilizers that are one piece from the bolt head all the way through the stab jack body. The ones I have now are all replacements and the original cheaper factory stabs were built the same as were the ones on our old TH. Also the design of mine will not allow for the threads to project out of the front like your picture shows.
Is this a new(er) TT? How many cycles would you guess you have on those stabilizers? That design (and your experiences with it) seems like a problem to me, a 3/4” bolt head transmitting all of the torque applied through an 1/8” (?) pin that’s prone to falling out. I still think moving to new better quality stabilizers will provide better service over time.
What the nut slips on is also a 5 sided head, that's what keeps it from just spinning around. I can still operate the stabilizer using a 12mm socket on the head.
This is on a 2015 Forest River Mini-Lite... I'm the 2nd owner, so have no ideal how many times these have been used, although the TT is spotless like new condition.
I agree. Get a whole new one. That one is weird, and I've never seen a cap like that that is 5-side on the inside and 6-side on the outside. It makes me think that Apple designed it.
