Video Transcript for Review of Bulldog Trailer Jack - Side Frame Mount Jack - BD180304

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this Bulldog Topwind Square Jack with the drop leg, has a 7,200 pound lift capacity. Now, this is a nice heavy-duty square jack, it's smaller than your typical large capacity jacks, and it's perfect for tight fitting applications. It is a nice, durable, heavy-gauge construction, so it'll let you direct weld mount to your trailer without any burn through, gives you superior side-load capacity compared with any round jacks, and the outer and inner tubes will overlap for additional strength even when the jack is fully extended. The square design will provide additional support for any side loading, and the tubing width on this is three inches. This does give you long bearing and gear life with an oil-impregnated bushing.

Has a nice weather resistant coating on the outer tube and a zinc inner tube. Right at the very top there's a screw nut, it's a screw nut stop that'll prevent damage to the screw and the nut when the Jack is fully extended. So basically, when you open this up and just start cranking it, you can see just like that, it'll get you a total travel of about 10 inches. As you can see it is a topwind handle, has a nice smooth ergonomic design for easy cranking, does include the bushing we mentioned in the top cap, and if you noticed, the knob on this is a nice eagle claw grip knob, let you hold onto it nice. The handle radius from here to here is about 12 inches.

And then for storage, you can just flip it back down. Now, the drop leg, I wanna zoom in on the drop leg right down here at the bottom, this will increase overall extension for maximum adjustability. Basically, this large pin here, when you pull it, it'll give you an extension of 10 1/8 inches. Basically, what you can do, right over here if you take the pin out, once you take the pin to release it, and then you just pull the larger pin out just like that. You'll be able to see that this will extend, has different settings you can set the set.

Total extra extension's about 10 1/8 inches. So once you find it in the position you need, put the pin back through the hole, swing the other pin around, line it up to the hole over here, and then clip it closed, and you're all ready to go. It is a heavy-duty foot plate, has reinforcement ribs for increased strength and zero water retention. The measurement on the foot plate is about 8 1/2 inches this way by eight inches this way. Now, we did mentioned, it is a direct-weld designed, so you can directly weld it to your trailer without having it burn through.

The bracket height, right now, when it's fully retracted, the position it's in is 18 3/16 inches, fully extended is 38 5/16 inches, so that's giving you a total lift of 20 1/8 inches, and what that is is the combined lift of the travel we mentioned of 10 inches and the drop leg travel of 10 1/8 inches. The lift capacity again is 7,200 pounds, the static capacity is 10,000 pounds. But that should do it for the review on this Bulldog Topwind Square Jack with the drop leg..
