  • Jacks to Lift a Truck Bed Camper Out of a Ford Ranger
  • There are actually special jacks for truck bed campers like yours. We carry some manual camper jacks, # CJ41, rated for 3,000 pounds. They have a 57 inch maximum lift height. It is recommended that 2 people operate the jacks simultaneously to make it easier to raise each side of the camper evenly.

  • Recommended Manual Jack System for Fleetwood Truck Bed Camper
  • For your 1999 Fleetwood Elkhorn Truck Camper, the electric jacks are notorious for failing and replacement parts are not easy to find. We unfortunately don't have the threaded rod you need to keep your jack from slipping. Manually adjusting it won't change the slipping issue, so you will need to use standard stabilizer jacks and a manual lift. The Brophy Heavy Duty Cable Camper Jacks - 57" Max Lift Height - 4,000 lbs - Qty 2 # CXHD is the best system we have available and what I recommend...

  • Using CR Brophy CJ74 Camper Jacks to Lift Heavy Camper Shell
  • As long as the camper shell weighs less than the 3,000 lb capacity of the # CJ74 Camper jacks, you should only need one set. The lift bracket itself is 26-1/2 inches long, so be sure to place the brackets at the center of gravity of the camper shell so it'll be balanced once it's up on the jacks. If the camper shell is heavier, using 2 stes would be recommended.

  • Brophy Cable Camper Jacks For 1972 Cab Over Camper
  • The Brophy Cable Camper Jacks - QTY 2 # CJ74 should work fine for your 1972 cab over camper. As long as the combined weight does not exceed 3,000 lbs. The uppermost poles on these jacks are elongated so you can lift your camper up to 67" off the ground, which should be more than enough to clear the bed rails of even the loftiest truck on the road.

  • Are There Rebuild Kits for HappiJac Electric Truck Camper Jacks Model 4100 and 4500
  • I do have an option for you but we don't have rebuild kits for the HappiJac Electric Truck Camper Jacks Model 4100 and 4500. These jacks have been discontinued and I recommend a full replacement system, the HappiJac Electric Truck Camper Jack System part # LC736514-ELKIT which is designed to replace both of these models. This is a complete system that comes with new jacks, motors, wringing, control box, and remote.

  • Recommended Stabilizer Jacks for 13-foot Camper Trailer
  • A camper that weighs about 2500-lbs can use stabilizer jacks rated for less than this total weight load since they will not have to bear that total when simply steadying the camper. For a cost-effective scissor jack I suggest the etrailer # TJSC-24 which offers bolt-on installation. This is sold as a single jack so order two. All similar stabilizer jack options are shown on the linked page.

  • Homemade Slide In Camper Lift Recommendations
  • For your horizontal clearance this will really come down to your specific truck as well. The Brophy Cable Camper Jacks have an offset lifting point that is designed to even with the legs of the jacks themselves. So if your truck has fenders that may bulge as it approaches the wheel wells, or your tires are wider than the outer fenders this would cause them to contact the stand and would not work. I personally would want to see at least 4" from the widest point to ensure enough clearance....
