Will Andersen Rapid Jack # AM3620 Fully Lift Tires on 2016 Forest River Travel Trailer off Ground
Question:
I am interested in the Blaylock Ez Jack or the Andersen Rapid Jack for my brand new 2016 Forest River Micro-lite travel trailer. This trailer has a measured 28.5inch distance between the tendem axles. My concern is that I have read mixed reviews about these jacks being able to fully elevate the wheel off the ground. I am looking forward to your advice. Thanks

I spoke with my contact at Anderson and he estimates that the Rapid Jack, # AM3620, will work for about 98 percent of the trailers out there today. Take a look at the video that I have attached where you will see that by using the Rapid Jack on the front tire, the back tire is raised just far enough to change the tire. The remaining 2 percent of trailers have an independent suspension so raising one tire will not raise the other. You can easily test this by pulling up on a large/thick board.
Although I do not have a demonstration video, just a picture to show you, my contact at Blaylock states that the EZ Jack, # EZ-JACK, will work for you as well.
