Expert Answers about GMC Trailer Jack


  • Is There a Folding Trailer Tongue Jack To Replace Jack On a 2021 Karavan 5' X 8' Utility Trailer?
  • The Ultimate Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K is going to be the best option we have for your 2021 Karavan 5x8 utility trailer. This will mount into the A-Frame mounting holes and easily retracts and extends as needed. I am not aware of anyone who makes a tongue jack that will mount in this position and then fold up and down as needed. Those types of jacks like the Dutton-Lainson # DL22300 are going to bolt to the side of the trailer frame.

  • Replacement Jack For Fulton Magnum Series Pipe Mount Sidewind Jack
  • I recommend the Bulldog Round, Pipe-Mount Swivel Jack # BD1541150301 to replace the Fulton jack currently on your trailer. The Bulldog jack uses the same Pipe Mount connection so that you can easily replace your jack. The jack is rated for 2,000lbs and has 10" lift height. Since you have a wheel you will also need the Replacement 6" Caster Wheel # BD500245 to attach to the jack. The caster is rated for only 1,200lbs so you will need to ensure that you do not exceed that with the caster...

  • Recommended Jack for Clearance When Lowering a Tailgate
  • Sorry to disappoint Vince but that's not a thing. There's no electric tongue jacks that rotate. They're all fixed like the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack item # SC63VR you were looking at. We've had people re-drill the mounting holes and push it back but I know most Airstream Trailer's are tight on tongue space. Another option is to switch to a side mount option with the Trailer Valet JXS Trailer Jack w/ Footplate item # TV64FR. This jack can be rotated down when you're hooked...

  • Recommended Nice A-Frame Jack For Heavy Car Hauler
  • Hi Aaron; so there isn't anything that can be used with a cordless impact gun, that's just not something that is attainable. But for a strong, fast, heavy-duty A-frame jack that can handle the weight you need? That we can do with the Phoenix jack: - Phoenix Electric Trailer Jack # UF38-944040 This has a 4,000 lb lift capacity which is more than enough for your 7,000 lb car hauler trailer to use in the manner you described. It also extends 6 inches in just under 10 seconds which I know...

  • Bolt On Trailer Jack Recommendation for 3,500 lb Trailer with 10 inch Lift
  • Hey Joel, the Fulton XLT bolt thru jack # F26ZR would be a great option that covers everything you are needing. It is a bolt-on swivel jack with 10 inch of lift. This jack has a 1,500 lb lift capacity which would be way more tongue weight capacity than a 3,500 lb trailer would have so it would jack up and down easily.

  • Lowest-Profile A-Frame Trailer Jack For Tailgate Clearance
  • Hi Robert, So there isn't one that can be used with a cordless drill (which would be an electric jack only) as all the electric A-frame jacks are all higher than the 12" to 14" you want. There is a manual crank jack you can use which I guarantee will allow tailgate clearance: - Ultimate Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K The # 322-RDJ-2K will be just 7-1/4" from the bracket to the top of the handle when all the way down, and has 27-1/2" of lift.

  • Jacks For A Coleman Pop-Up Camper
  • For your Coleman Pop-Up Camper, I recommend the etrailer Scissor Jacks with Handle # TJSCHD-24. The scissor jacks provide more stability than a single leg jack. They come with the handle and are easier to adjust than the single leg jacks. If you prefer the single leg jacks I would go with Stallion Stabilizer Jacks - 7" Drop Leg Travel - 22-1/4" - Qty 2 Item # 288-01892-2 which offer a 1000lb weight capacity so they should be more than capable of handling the weight of the trailer.

  • Does The Ark Extreme Jack Need To Be Mounted On The Center Rail Of The Trailer Frame?
  • Hey Rich, that is a really good question. The short answer is, no, you do not need to go relocate your jack. According to the manufacturer, mounting the jack on the middle rail allows it to more evenly distribute the weight of the trailer, making it easier to move and turn. Pretty hard to disagree with, right? I believe in the video they chose the center rail since the trailer was a bit on the heavier side, and because they simply had room to do so. That being said, in most cases, the...

  • Will Jack-It 2 Bike Rack Fit Meerkat Trailer
  • As long as the outer tube on your trailer jack is no more than 2-1/4" in diameter you will be able to use the Jack-It 2 Bike Rack # LC429756 on your Meerkat trailer. This will attach to the tongue using the same 3 mounting bolts that hold your jack on the trailer.

  • Jack Options for 2 x 2 Trailer Frame on Kwik Kamper Pop Up Camper with Storage Box on Front
  • Thanks for sending in the pictures of your trailer. The Dutton-Lainson Pull Pin, Easy Swivel Trailer Jack, # DL22457, that you mentioned will fit a 2 inch by 2 inch frame but I think that I may have a better option for your trailer. Take a look at the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack # ORJW1SU. This jack has a large wheel and a ratcheting handle which make is easy to maneuver. The jack is also easily removable, so you could store it in your toolbox, you would just have to move...

  • Fulton F2 Swing Up Trailer Jack With Wheel Having Excessive Play In The Wheel
  • That definately seems like an excessive amount of play in your Fulton F2 Swing-Up Trailer Jack # F1413140334. As these jacks have a lifetime warranty you can reach out to Fulton to see if they would either send you a new Wheel Assembly # F500266 or an entire jack.

  • Recommended Trailer Jack for a Jayco Jay Flight 174BH Travel Trailer
  • In order to find out a jack for your Jayco, you're going to need to know what your trailer's tongue weight is and pick a jack that can support that weight rating. Since your Jayco has a GVWR of 3,950 lbs (and tongue weight is 10-15% of the GVWR), that puts your range at 395-592 lbs tongue weight roughly. If you actually know your tongue weight that would be the best case, but since we don't at the moment this'll work too. So with that said, the Stromberg Carlson Electric A-Frame Tongue...

  • Option For Horse Trailer A-Frame Jack That Bolts On

  • Will Fulton Bolt-Thru Jack Fit in Place of Shelby Jack
  • I went out to the warehouse and took a few measurements of the mounting bracket on the Fulton Bolt-Thru Swivel Marine Jack # FXP10W0301 and found that the widest part of the indented hole is 1-12" while the hole that the bolt goes through measured 3/4". I have attached some pictures that you can use as a reference. If these match with your current Shelby jack then you can use the Fulton jack with your current mounting bracket that is welded to your trailer frame.

  • Replacing A Lippert A-Frame Jack For A Side-Mount Swivel Tongue Jack
  • Hey Steven, You can definitely swap out the Lippert Quick Drop Tongue Jack # LC733926 on your trailer for the Trailer Valet JXS Trailer Jack w/ Footplate # TV64FR. You'll just want to measure the frame and make sure it falls under the maximum tolerances (4-3/4" tall x 3-3/4" tall) of the mounting brackets. If the frame is larger you can also shoot some self-tapping screws through the bracket to mount it to the frame instead of clamping onto it. I recommend keeping the bracket slightly...

  • Will Trailer Valet JXC Trailer Jack Work with 3-3/4" Mounting Bolt Pattern
  • Hey Joe! Yes, the Trailer Valet JXC Trailer Jack w/ Footplate and Drill Powered Option # TV94FR does have a set of mounting holes that will accommodate a 3-3/4" mounting bolt pattern - I went out to the warehouse and confirmed this on my end.

  • Electric Trailer Jack Recommendation for a 7,500 lb Boat Trailer
  • Hey Ryan, thanks for reaching out! The only true electric trailer jack made to fit a standard boat trailer with a pole tongue is the Fulton XLT Powered Drive Trailer Jack # F141401. Even though this is the only option available, Fulton has added some provisions (like the ZMax finish and stainless ACME screws) to help make it more durable and built to resist corrosion from water. A properly loaded trailer will have a tongue weight that is 10-15% the weight of the fully loaded trailer so...
