  • A-Frame Mounted Trailer Jack That Has a Front Manual Crank and Electric Option
  • Since all of our electric tongue jacks like the Stromberg Carlson Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-2500 have the access holes for the manual crank handles on top of the jack, I recommend the Trailer Valet JXC Trailer Jack # TV54FR. This jack has a round mounting plate for the triangular A-Frame mounting holes on your trailer. While it is a manual jack the handle can be removed and the Drill Attachment # TVDA that comes with the jack allows you to use a 18 volt or larger cordless drill...

  • Availability of Trailer Jack With Wheel and Has the Highest Lift
  • The trailer tongue jack that will have the most lift would be the Bulldog Rack-and-Gear Jack with Steel Wheel, part # BD165412. The jack is designed to fit A-Frame trailers and has a maximum lift of 19 inches. This jack has a lift capacity of 1,200 lbs. This jack was designed for use on trailers being towed by large 4x4 trucks. The next highest lift would be 16 inches. I am including a link to a product page that will show the choices of jacks I would have in the 16 inch lift. The Fulton...

  • Availability of Swivel Trailer Jack Similar to Whats Offered on Kendon Folding Motorcycle Trailer
  • I looked up the trailer and jack you mentioned and wasn't able to find all the specifics about the jack. I did find that it's a pipe mount, and that the jack offers 10 inches of lift. I wasn't able to find its capacity. For a similar jack, I'd recommend the etrailer Sidewind Swivel Jack, part # TJP-2002S-B. This jack includes a footplate rather than a caster, and would cost less than half the jack they offer. What I couldn't see in their photos is exactly how the pipe mount attaches to...

  • Repair Parts and Replacement Jack for 2000 Sundowner 2-Horse Gooseneck Trailer
  • We do offer repair kits for many jack types, brands and models but we do not have a way to look up the specific brand and model of jack on your 2000 Sundowner gooseneck. From my research it appears most of the 2-horse gooseneck trailers from Sundowner used a single square jack, like the Bulldog 10K square jack # BD182804. This is a weld-on jack. We also have a Bulldog bolt-on 12V electric jack, part # BD185400 rated for 12K. If you can find brand and specific jack model information on...

  • Recommend A Bolt-Thru Fulton 1200 lb Trailer Jack
  • I contacted our representative at Fulton. He informed me that the model jack you have referenced, may be the TJ507, as they do not have a record for the TJ5010101 jack. He informed me that the newer model jacks will not fit the older jack mounts. The reason this is, is that a few years back they redesigned the mounts as to make them fit better and rattle less. For you to install a new jack you would need to install a jack and use the mounting system the new jack uses, which many of the...

  • Availability of Trailer Swivel Jack with Pneumatic Tires
  • If the tongue weight of your trailer is less than 500 lbs, the Trailer Valet Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover, part # STC-V211 might be a good choice. The jack swings up next to the trailer frame so it'll be out of the way of your truck tailgate and the jack features two pneumatic tires. This is the only jack we offer with pneumatic tires. If you click the provided link, you can see a demonstration video of the jack. The wheels on the jack are actually driven by one of the crank handles on...

  • Availability of a Trailer Swivel Jack with 8 to 10 Inch Pneumatic Wheels
  • All of the swivel trailer jacks that we carry that have wheels have plastic wheels with the exception of the Trailer Valet, # STC-V211. With this jack you also get a trailer mover. The jack has a tongue weight capacity of 500 pounds so if you need a higher capacity you would have to go with a model with a plastic wheel. I have linked all of the swivel jacks that have wheels.

  • Replacement Swivel Jack with Lowest Possible Retracted Height for Use on Small Utility Trailer
  • I was able to find a swivel jack option for you that has a retracted height of 11 inches from the bottom of the wheel to the center of the mounting bracket, but none of the trailer jacks with a caster that we offer have a retracted height of 10 inches or less. The jack that may work best for you is the Fulton F2 Trailer Jack, like # F1413040134. This jack has an adjustable mounting bracket with the lowest retracted height being 11 inches. The lift height of the jack is 10 inches, and...

  • Availability of Powered Side Mount Jack for Boat Trailer
  • The Lippert # LC69VR jack is meant for an A-Frame trailer and wouldn't be compatible with a straight or pole tongue trailer like what's used on a boat trailer without extensive fabrication work. This being said, we do have a side-mount powered trailer jack that would work well for you, The Fulton XLT, part # F141401. The jack has a 2500 lb lift capacity, as long as the tongue weight of your boat and trailer is under 2500 lbs, the jack would work great for you. The jack bolts into place,...

  • Availability of Side Crank Trailer Jack with Removable Handle
  • Most of our sidewind trailer jacks have handles that can be removed. For example, Bulldog sidewind jacks, like # BD182415, and Pro Series sidewind jacks, like # PS1400960376, are attached by a vertical clevis and pin. The Fulton F2 jacks like the # F1413040134 has a handle that can be replaced with part # F500134 so you can definitely remove that handle. I have included a link to all of our replacement side hand cranks for trailer jacks for you to check out.

  • Swivel Jack Recommendation for Trailer with 6 inch Tall Trailer Frame
  • We have a solution that will work for you, but none of the bolt-on trailer jacks we offer are compatible with a 6 inch tall trailer frame. For a trailer frame of that height, I'd recommend you use a weld-on jack like part # FTJ120W0301. This jack has a 1200 lb capacity, and easily swivels rearward for storage with the pull of a pin.

  • Are There Trailer Jack Options That Allow You to Fully Open a Truck Tailgate w/ a Travel Trailer On
  • Your truck tailgate hitting the electric jack on your 2022 Keystone Springdale TT is a pretty common occurrence. Unfortunately, I am not able to determine what jack you have from your RV information. But, I have listed a couple potential options. I am unfamiliar with the taller post jacks you mentioned and did not find much on them. The first thing you could look at, is if you can rotate the jack to face the side. This typically provides a couple more inches of clearance. A jack like the...

  • Availability of A-Frame Mount Trailer Jack w/ 2 Inch Diameter Outer Tube
  • Given the 3500 lb weight of your trailer, your tongue weight will be somewhere between 350 and 525 lbs, so you won't need a jack with a super-high capacity. This being said, choosing a jack with a higher rating than you need isn't a bad idea. The jack (as well as you) won't have to work so hard, which means the jack will last longer. I've looked through our selection of trailer jacks, and have found that none of the jacks we offer have a 2 inch diameter outer tube. 2-1/4 inches is the...

  • Is There a Blank Cover Plate Which Can Mount Over Holes For A-Frame Trailer Jack Holes?
  • I have never seen a blank cover plate to cover the hole on your trailer A-frame, but you should be able to easily fabricate one out of a steel or aluminum sheet. As an alternative to the Snap Ring Swivel Jack # TJBB-2001-B you could also consider the Ultimate Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K. This jack mounts in the same space as your current A-frame jack and will allow you to lower it to one of 7-different heights to clear your tailgate.

  • Are Replacement Parts Available For Welded On Trailer Jacks To Avoid Having To Remove Them
  • It's really going to depend on the specific jack if there's the possibility that parts on it can be replaced or if there are even any replacement parts available. For the majority of jacks there will not be replacement parts available and you would need to cut/angle grind the old jack off of the frame and install a new one. The etrailer Stabilizer Jack # TJ01RT you were looking at for example, does not have any replacement parts and would a total replacement. If you're referring to a...

  • Availability of 5,000 lb Top Wind Trailer Jack with Grease Zerk Fitting
  • The A-Frame Trailer Jack - Topwind - 5,000 lbs. by Dutton-Lainson # DL22772 does not have a grease zerk fitting integrated, sor do any of our other top wind jacks. This doesn't mean they are difficult to maintain, but they do not have that integrated feature. Normally the bigger square topwind jacks do have that feature like # TJD-7000 as well as some of the side wind Swivel jacks. I've linked the page to all your 5,000 lb Top Wind trailer jack options to assist. You can add the Replacement...
