Recommended Electric Jack For Goose Neck Horse Trailer
Question:
I have a goose neck horse trailer with a Ram 12000 Series manual jack. Would like to convert to electric. Can you suggest a kit?

For an electric jack with the 10,000 lb capacity of your Ram 12000 Series manual jack, I recommend the Electric 5th Wheel Landing Gear Set # RP500708. This kit will give you the 2 independently motorized jacks with drop legs and the switches needed. I've attached a photo giving you the dimensions so you can determine fit.
Another option is the Bulldog Velocity Series Electric Landing Gear Jack - 24" Lift - 12,000 lbs # BD185400. This is an external unit that is sealed and maintenance free. It is more similar to your square jack and bolts onto your trailer versus welding on. It comes with a remote with a 10 foot cord so you can operate it from a distance.
Both of these jack systems will require a trailer battery connection.
