Trailer Jack Recommendation to Replace Bent Inner Leg of Stromberg Jack

Question

Question:

I have a Stromberg Carlson JET-3700 Black 3500 Lbs Electric Tongue Jack with Light. Forgot to raise the jack pulling out of a campsite and bent the inner tube that extends. Do you have a replacement or do I need to purchase a new jack?

I wish we carried a replacement leg but we do not at this time. Only option we have is a new jack.

For a replacement, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR. It has a lifting capacity of 4,500 lbs which would be more than you'd need but will ensure that the jack will operate quickly and last a long time.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
