Replacement Scissor Jacks Recommendation for an InTech Enclosed Trailer

Question

Question:

I am looking to replace the leveling legs on the back of my InTech enclosed trailer. The ones on there currently mount with three bolts - one towards the center of the trailer and then 2 side by side on the outer trailer frame rail. They are hand-cranked. I dont see any similar on your website. Dont suppose you have something along these lines?

Hey Bill, thanks for reaching out!

It sounds like you're needing something like the Scissor Stabilizer Jacks w/ Handle # TJSCHD-24. This has a few different holes for the mounting hardware so it should be able to match up with the bolt pattern you have on your trailer.

I'm attaching a photo of the distance between the mounting holes for you to compare with what you currently have to see if these will work!

Jon, not exactly. The mounting plates for my current ones are ~20" long - they extend under the trailer a fair bit. Don't see that I can add photos here but I'll measure bolt center line to center line when I get home.

@Bill Thanks for the photo! I went ahead and attached it above for reference. The closest thing we have to that style is the Lippert # LC404488 but this is designed for a whole travel trailer leveling system and it's meant to be used on it's own. While we don't have any jacks that look to be an exact replacement for what you currently have, I do believe you'll be able to mount the jacks I initially referenced to the outside of your frame so you can still have stability on your trailer.

The 2" hitch ball on the B&W Tow and Stow #BWTS10049B is on the left hand side and not on the top, so as you've noted it might potentially drag the 2-5/16" ball when towing in that orientation. With that said, typically you'll…

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.…
