Power Trailer Jack Recommendation for a 2012 Keystone Outback 280RS Travel Trailer
Question:
A electric hitch jack for my 2012 Keystone Outback 280RS Travel Trailer to replace the factory original.
asked by: Rick
Expert Reply:
I looked up your trailer online and because of the limited clearance behind your factory original jack, I would recommend going with the Bulldog Powered Jack, part # BD500188. This jack has good clearance for your propane tank cover and has a 3500 lb capacity. This is probably more capacity than you actually need, but when it comes to trailer jacks, overkill is a good thing. Using a jack that has a higher rating than you actually need means that the jack won't need to work as hard, and will therefore last longer than it would otherwise.
