A trailer jack is designed to lift the tongue of your trailer so you can connect the trailer coupler to your hitch ball. To do this, you'll need a jack with a lift capacity high enough to handle your trailer's tongue weight.
Tongue weight is the amount of weight that your trailer applies to the back of your tow vehicle. Typically, your tongue weight should be 10-15% of your total trailer weight (trailer + cargo). In other words, a 10,000-lb trailer would have a tongue weight between 1,000 lbs and 1,500 lbs. For a trailer this size, you would need a jack with a lift capacity of at least 1,500 lbs.
It's okay to have a jack with a weight rating that is higher than your trailer's tongue weight. In fact, a jack with a higher lift capacity should operate more efficiently, allowing you to spend less time cranking and more time camping.
Every jack offers a certain amount of lift or travel. Screw travel is the distance the jack extends when you crank it (or toggle it to "extend" on an electric model). Some jacks include a drop leg for extra adjustability. On these jacks, you'll see the maximum extension of the drop leg listed in the specs as well. Adding the screw travel and drop leg travel together will give you the total lift. The total lift listed above can help you determine how high this jack will be able to raise your trailer.

Always fast and responsiveI have ordered from etrailer twice now and they have always not only met but exceeded my expectations on getting their products shipped quickly. The product information available has always helped to find the right/compatible part. I highly recommend them and will continue to use them as my go to resource for my trailer and towing needs.
The order arrived today, Saturday, after I purchased it online only two days earlier. Handle was exactly what I ordered and I was able to install it in around 4 minutes. No missing parts. Followup with emails by etrailer.com is excellent. I never had to wonder where the part was and when it was going to arrive. I would highly recommend anyone purchasing trailer parts to use etrailer.com
Nice quality handle fit perfectly on my top wind trailer jack (unknown manufacturer). Just cut off old, bolt on new. Fast shipping after an easy, straightforward order process.
A perfect replacement handle. Actually better than the original one that was on our camper. Price and service were great and super fast shipping. Ordered on Sunday, Monday morning I had an email saying the item had been shipped, was delivered on Thursday. Installed in about 5 minutes. Only issue was the new nut and bolt seemed a little wider than the old and didn't want to go through the upright jack pin. No big deal I just used the old bolt. I'm extremely pleased with my purchase and etrailer.com!
The handle comes with a locking nut, which eliminates the worry about it coming loose/off.
This handle is a perfect fit on my tongue jack on my Rockwood A-frame trailer. It feels reasonably well made and the handle is comfortable.
Simple product, as described, and fast shipping!
Ordered the handle for my trailer jack from etrailer after going to trailer parts stores and finding that they did not have the handle but would sell me a new jack. The part was shipped and received within the expected time frame. I installed the handle in about 10 minutes. It works just as well as the original. When I need trailer parts in the future, etrailer has my business.
The handle that I needed arrived very fast and is a perfect replacement. Etrailer was very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend them for replacement parts.

The handle after a year of service is still a perfect replacement.
Received these and have not installed them yet, however they are exactly what I need for two large trailers. As always great service from etrailer and supper fast shipping. Will be redoing a car hauler in the near future and will count on etrailer for the brake, wiring, lights, etc. Quality products for reasonable prices.
Good quality, good fit. I generally have low expectations when buying on the internet but this was a pleasant surprise as the quality is very good with an easy install.

Absolutely perfect! After one year of a lot of use, the handle is still working like new.
Speedy delivery, very easy installation, great quality for the price. I'm just tickled sick I was able to find this item on the Internet. My old handle got beat to death by my heavy tailgate dropping down on it. This one is short enough to miss the tailgate when it's down!
Highly recommend this product.
This is a well made and sturdy product . I'm very pleased with my purchase. Delivered quickly. Was not able to track it. I track everything.
This was a replacement for a handle on an Atwood Jack. It fits perfectly and was easy to install. I received great telephone help selecting this item.

Continues to work perfectly, just as I hoped.
This handle fit great, same as original. Saved time and trouble of replacing entire jack, which is welded into trailer.
