Replacing Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack, # LC285318, on a 2011 Coachman Freedom Express Trailer
Question:
We have a 2011 Coachmen Freedom Express with this electric tongue jack on it. We had trouble with jack from the first day. We received a warranty replacement of same jack. There are no instructions. How do we replace the old LC285318 with the new one. Thanks for your help.

Expert Reply:
What you are going to need is another, independent jack with the capacity to lift and hold the trailer while you remove the old one. Once you have the trailer lifted and secured, retract the leg of the jack and remove the foot plate. Then you can un-bolt it from the frame and pull it up and out of the way. Remove it and the wiring and then reverse the process for the new jack. make sure to test it first before putting a load on it.
