Electric Trailer Jack for Casita Liberty Deluxe Trailer with Weight Distribution Recommendation

Question:

What capacity electric tongue jack would I need for a 1998 17’ Casita Liberty Deluxe trailer with 400lb tongue weight, keeping in mind that I use an Equal-I-zer WD hitch so I have to lift the back end of my 2011 Chevy Suburban 1500 vehicle to disconnect the anti-sway bars? Thank you

Any of the powered a-frame jacks we carry would have the capacity needed for your setup that includes 400 lb tongue weight from your Casita Liberty Deluxe and lifting the rear of your Suburban for connecting the spring bars of your weight distribution system. On the more economical end the etrailer part # EJ-3520-BBX would get the job done at a really great price and it has a 3,500 lb capacity.

If you don't mind a higher price tag the Phoenix part # UF38-944040 would be a really great option that can fully extend and retract with a full load in a matter of seconds (8 to be exact) compared to other options that take quite some time.
