  • Camper Jacks for Storing Camper on Driveway
  • There are camper jacks that will allow you to take your camper off your truck bed easily, but there is nothing with wheels as that would not be stable enough so they do need to remain stationary.

  • Availability Of Atwood Camper Jacks Wired Remote Control
  • Unfortunately, Atwood is no longer in business and their camper jacks are no longer available. So I am afraid a replacement remote is also not available. I know this is probably not what you wanted to hear, but at this point if the jack has ceased to function, we would have to recommend replacing the jack entirely. There are going to be a few options for replacements and I have listed a few of those below. - Brophy Heavy Duty Cable Camper Jacks - 57" Max Lift Height # CXHD - Brophy Heavy...

  • Can Brophy Cable Camper Jacks # CJ31 Be Used to Stabilize Truck Camper
  • The Brophy Cable Camper Jacks # CJ31 referenced in your question are designed to allow for easy loading and unloading of your truck camper but could be used as stabilizing jacks along with the 3 existing jacks on your camper to help support and hold the unit in place while it's off the truck.

  • Can In-Bed Camper Jacks be Used to Lift Off Truck Camper Shell
  • The L-Bracket on the Brophy Cable Camper Jacks # CJ74 would need to slide under your camper shell on either side and then you would use the winches to help raise the camper shell off of your Ford F-350. You can use 2x4s if you want to but really the camper jacks can handle the weight so it really boils down to finding a way to stabilize your camper shell. Since these camper jacks were designed to be used for an in-bed truck camper I'm not sure if I have any pointers for your application...

  • Recommended Truck Bed Camper Jacks for a 1996 Northern Lite Camper
  • The only truck bed camper jacks we offer are the Brophy Cable Camper Jacks. As long as the loaded weight of your truck bed camper does not exceed 3,000 lbs then I recommend part # CJ41 for 57" of lift or part # CJ74 for 67" of lift. These jacks will do an excellent job of helping to load and unload your camper into the truck bed. They do not permanently install on the camper which makes for a very clean look and they can also be broken down into three pieces for easy storage.

  • Slide In Truck Camper Jacks Recommended For a Dually Pickup Truck
  • With dually trucks I recommend the Swing Out Extension Brackets # LC182496 with the HappiJac Manual Truck Camper Jack System # LC736515-4. This is due to the Brophy Heavy Duty Cable Camper Jacks # CX74 having to sit under the lip of the camper. Since slide in campers can vary in width depending on manufacturer and model I cannot say that they will clear the dually fenders on your 2022 Ford F-350. The extension brackets will give you 3-1/2" to 4-1/2" of extension off the side of the camper...

  • How to Determine Weight Capacity of Electric Trailer Tongue Jack for Camper
  • You'll need to chose a jack whose capacity is greater than the fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight of the camper. Going with a powered jack whose capacity is much greater than the tongue weight of the camper is recommended because the jack won't need to work so hard and will therefore last longer. Also, if you're using a weight distribution system on the camper, sometimes you'll want to use the trailer jack to also pick up the rear of the vehicle to put slack into the system so...
