How to Determine if the Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizer Will Fit a Trailer

Question:

Looking at replacing my scissor jacks with electric stabilizer. not sure what model will fit my coach. It weighs 5900lbs dry. Also, does each leg work independently or does it work unison with the entire jack? meaning, could I go farther on one corner of the coach vs the other, like you can on a scissor jack?

You can potentially replace the scissor jacks on your trailers with the Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizer, # UF39-941705. It will install on the bottom of the frame as long as the frame width is 48 to 80 inches measured from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other.

This unit does have separate motors and controls for each side to allow you to provide support on uneven ground.

The capacity of this unit is 6,000 pounds when extended to 30 inches and 3,000 pounds when extended to 15 inches. Since it will be placed more towards the front or rear of the trailer, it will not be bearing the whole 5,900 pound weight of the trailer.
