How to Determine the Lift Capacity You Need in a Jack

A trailer jack is designed to lift the tongue of your trailer so you can connect the trailer coupler to your hitch ball. To do this, you'll need a jack with a lift capacity high enough to handle your trailer's tongue weight.


Tongue weight is the amount of weight that your trailer applies to the back of your tow vehicle. Typically, your tongue weight should be 10-15% of your total trailer weight (trailer + cargo). In other words, a 10,000-lb trailer would have a tongue weight between 1,000 lbs and 1,500 lbs. For a trailer this size, you would need a jack with a lift capacity of at least 1,500 lbs.


It's okay to have a jack with a weight rating that is higher than your trailer's tongue weight. In fact, a jack with a higher lift capacity should operate more efficiently, allowing you to spend less time cranking and more time camping.


Trailer and Camper Jack Lift

Every jack offers a certain amount of lift or travel. Screw travel is the distance the jack extends when you crank it (or toggle it to "extend" on an electric model). Some jacks include a drop leg for extra adjustability. On these jacks, you'll see the maximum extension of the drop leg listed in the specs as well. Adding the screw travel and drop leg travel together will give you the total lift. The total lift listed above can help you determine how high this jack will be able to raise your trailer.

I was extremely impressed with the recent technical and customer support from etrailer. Over the weekend, they answered my questions to select the appropriate replacement electric jack for my Airstream. Also, when there was a shipping delay (not etrailer’s fault), Rose provided prompt responses and professional support. I will continue to use etrailer for my RV needs.



by:

Definitely has the power I need however I can't open my tailgate when my camper is hooked up. 5 stars for power.



by:

Works flawlessly. Maybe the only thing I could complain about is it is slower than I think it could be. Along with the side lights could always be brighter. Works great, install kit is awesome, and it works without a stutter.

Amazing! I would have replaced mine sooner with this and I known. It’s not faster but way more confident, quiet, and has a larger extension without taking up much more space.

@Jerry We're glad to hear you're happy with your trailer jack!


by:

Had been contemplating this purchase/install for a couple of years. Finally bit the bullet. Purchase was simple. Shipping was a day late in arriving, not a real issue, because I live in a rural area. Shipping delays are expected.
Installation was very straight forward, remove three bolts, replace three bolts. That was all there was as far as the mechanical installation. For the electrical portion I elected to splice into the battery power wire that is part of the 7-wire electric cable on the trailer, in lieu of running a dedicated #10 wire direct from the trailer battery.
The jack seems to operate just fine, as anticipated. I have run the jack a number of times over the last few days without issue.
Why not a 5 star review, just haven't owned it long enough nor operated the jack enough. Ask me in 5 years.



by:

I own 10 trailers for business, I have used many electric tongue jacks. This one stands up to the abuse and time in the weather. Recommend this unit to anyone wanting a reliable electric tongue jack. It is not fast, but it is strong



by:

Works well, dependable.



by:

It was easy to install and has power to spare. I installed it on a 6000 lb travel trailer that requires the truck to be lifted to easily remove the weight distribution bars. My old jack struggled with the weight. Not this one. Lots of power. It's a simple jack. No memory functions, no auto retract feature. Just two buttons. One to raise and lower the front of the trailer, and one for the lights. My issues are that the lights are essentially worthless. They don't produce much light and being on the side of the unit, they aren't aimed where you need them to be. Also, you have to buy their kit to have a place to hang the chains and the cord or, buy a cover that allows you to do the same. I recommend you buy the cover by the way. Solid buy recommendation



by:

This was a complete gamechanger for us. We formerly had a power jack rated for 2500 lbs. Every time I had to raise it, the whole trailer swayed. It also didn't have the adjustable base, so the height was restricted. Moving up to this jack means no more sway and the option for an additional 5 inches of height. Installation was super simple, as well. Thank you, etrailer, for making it so I no longer live in terror of raising my jack.



by:

Trailer jack was defective. etrailer.com passed the buck to the manufacturer. The manufacturer was not very receptive and expected me to repair the jack. I purchased a new one and shouldn't have to try to figure out why it wasn't working. I want a new one and should get it from etrailer since I purchased it from them.

We really like our electric jack. It is everything we excepted.

After using our jack for 1 year now, it still works as it should and it makes leveling and hooking up much easier.

It is getting slower and slower to lift the trailer. Is there anything that needs lubricants?

Etrailer Expert

Mike L.

11/15/2023

@Grant The only lubrication needed is the inner jack tube. Stromberg Carlson recommends fully extending the jack which fully exposes the inner tube. Thoroughly clean the tube then lubricate it with a thin coat of grease or a silicone spray lubricant. As far as the jack operating slowly, be sure the battery is fully charged and full power is reaching the jack. Also, the jack picks up its ground connection via its attachment to the trailer tongue. Make sure this connection is secure and not corroded. Hope that helps!

Getting slower in lifting the trailer

Etrailer Expert

Mike L.

11/18/2023

@Grant Make sure the battery is fully charged and the jack is getting a full 12-volts. The jack gets its ground connection via its connection to the trailer tongue, so make sure the connection point between the jack and trailer tongue isn't corroded.


by:

Extremely sturdy, built well and a breeze to install. Amazingly quiet! Lifts the front of my 32' toy hauler effortlessly, very pleased with this jack and I am most definitely going to recommend this to my parents and friends. Oh, and quick shipping, received the jack in three days!



by:

The jack has performed great over the past year. The only minor comment would be that the integrated light hasn't been bright enough to use for other tasks other than seeing the switches. As that is as designed feature, it's only a minor inconvenience if you want more light at the trailer hitch.



by:

1 year later still no issues it fit perfect on my trailer and still works perfect



by:

Ordering Processing, and shipping can not expect any better! Installation, operation. No glitches ! Great followup, excellent staff, product function and appearance all that is desired. Just great!

See what our Experts say about this Stromberg Carlson Camper Jacks

  • Troubleshooting Huskey Brute Electric Trailer Jack That Retracts But Doesnt Extend
    I highly doubt that the jack itself is the issue. Typically when a trailer jack has trouble extending but not retracting that is due to a bad ground connection or a depleted battery, with the battery being the more common of the two. Gravity helps when lowering the jack so the battery isn't having to put out much power whereas raising the trailer tongue relies solely on power from the battery. Start off by checking your ground connection and making sure that it is securely connected to...

  • Solution for Trailer Jack that Was Retracted too Far and was Damaged
    On a lot of powered a-frame jacks if you extend or retract them too far you end up warping the nut and screw that allows the jack to travel up and down. When this happens there isn't a way to fix it as the jack is permanently damaged. It's time for a new jack. As a replacement, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack, # JET-5000. It has a lifting capacity of 5,000 lbs which would be more than you'd need but will ensure that the jack will operate quickly and last a long time.

  • Recommendation on a A-Frame Tongue Jack for a Trailer
    For an electric A-frame trailer jack, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Black, Item # JET-5000. The Bulldog Powered Jack, # BD500187, would work well on your trailer; however, I like the Stromberg Carlson better for you. The Stromberg Carlson jack will give you 5,000 lbs of lifting capacity, but at far less power draw than the other A-frame jacks. Going heavier with the load capacity makes the jack work faster and prolongs...

  • Can New Holes Be Drilled Into The Mounting Plate Of The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack
    You could drill new holes in the mounting plate of the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 to fit your spacing needs on your 2019 Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer. If possible the best way to mount is to have it welded to the tongue of your trailer. If you do drill new holes in the mounting plate I recommend spray painting the bare metal of the new holes to prevent rust and corrosion.

  • Recommended Ways to Power Electric A-Frame Jack
    You are on the right track so far. The breakaway battery you have now should not be how you power an a-frame jack like the Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000. The breakaway battery needs to be only used by the breakaway system as needed. Draining it with other accessories would most likely cause it to fail if ever needed. Best option is to install a deep cycle battery on your trailer to power this jack. It draws up to 25 amps though so you could power it from the 7-way too as that circuit should...

  • Switch on Electric Trailer Jack Just Makes a Clicking Sound
    Since you mention that the trailer jack worked fine last year before removing it, I recommend that you start by checking the ground wire and make sure that it is secured to a clean metal surface on the trailer. Next I would make sure that your battery is fully charged and has enough amperage to run the motor. If your trailer jack still isn't functioning properly, you could have a bad switch or motor. In order to determine which component is defective, you would need to remove the switch...

  • Will Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack Work With 2014 Prowler Camper That Weighs 9000 Lbs
    The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Black, Item # JET-5000, is a great choice for your 2014 Prowler 30XL. You can check your tongue weight to make sure this jack will work for you. It has a lift capacity of 5,000 lbs. If you would experience loss of power, a manual override crank is included. The jack features a drop leg distance of 5 inches and lift distance of 18 inches for a total of 23 inches of travel. I have attached a link...

Although it is best to wire the jack to a trailer mounted battery, this video shows how you could wire it to the 12 volt circuit from a 7-Way trailer connector.

  • Electric Jack Recommendation for Car Hauler Hauling 3,400 lb Car
    Cranking jacks is one of the lead causes of crankiness so I can sympathize with you there! The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 that you referenced has a 5,000 lb lifting strength and would make easy work of your trailer. The bigger the better is the right mindset as having an overkill jack allows it to work faster and last longer since it won't be straining.

  • Powered A-Frame Trailer Jack for a 2012 Shadow Cruiser Trailer
    The higher the capacity of the jack the easier it will be for it to lift the trailer and the longer it will last. I recommend going with a 3500 pound model such as # LC285318. Or you could go even higher and use a 5000 pound jack, # Jet-5000. I have included links to video reviews for these jacks for you.

  • Recommended Electric Trailer Jack for 1,055 Tongue Weight
    For your travel trailer that has a tongue weight of 1,055 pounds, I recommend looking at the Husky Brute Electric Trailer Jack # HT87247. There are a couple of reasons I really like this particular electric jack. First, it features a low-friction ball screw that minimizes resistance to reduce wear, noise and heat. Basically, because of this mechanism, the jack simply does not need to use as much power during operation. The jack also has an automatic stop that will prevent damage caused...

  • Recommended Electric Trailer Jack for 2011 Summerland Springdale 2600TBS Trailer
    The standard outer tube diameter for trailer tongue jacks is usually 2, 2-3/16, or 2-1/4 inches. I recommend just measuring the outer tube diameter on your existing manual jack to ensure that the product you choose will fit. Based on my research, it looks like your 2011 Summerland Springdale 2600TBS trailer has a GVWR of 7,545 pounds and a tongue weight of 545 pounds. Using these numbers, I recommend looking at the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame # JET-5000....

    Your specific battery's amp-hour rating (Ah), its condition and the specific jack in use will determine how many uses you will get before your battery is drained.

If the bent leg is the tube that the jack foot goes into, that is not an available replacement part and the entire jack will need to be replaced with another # JET-5000.

    Sundowner made both bumper-pull A-frame trailers and gooseneck trailers in 1998 but it sounds like you have a bumper-pull A-frame type and need an electric tongue jack. We like to suggest using an electric tongue jack with more weight capacity than you will actually need, since this this tends to improve both reliability and the jack's working lifespan.
