Replacement Rear Scissor Jacks for 2012 KZ Spree 261 Travel Trailer

Question:

Will Ram Scissor Jack Fit on a 2012 KZ Spree 261? The rear jacks are bent. I was looking at: Ram Scissor Stabilizer Jack - 18-3/4inch Travel - 2,500 lbs

Trailer items like jacks and stabilizers are usually not trailer-specific and most trailer makers don't even keep track of the specific jack installed on their trailers since they may change such parts based on availability or pricing.

The things you want to match up as you choose your new scissor jack are the weight capacity (check the sticker on your damaged jack and use at least that same rating if not higher); and the jack height. You want to make sure you do not lose ground clearance by selecting a scissor jack that extends further down when retracted.

The ram Scissor Jack # TJSC-24 offers a 2500-lb capacity, as you noted, and its height ranges from 5-inches retracted down to 23-2/4-inches when fully extended. We also offer a pair of 5000-lb-rated jacks from Stromberg Carlson, part # JSC-30, which also retracts to 5-inches of height but which extends further down, 30-inches, when fully extended.
