Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set - 38" Lift - 12,000 lbs
Wowzers, what having two motors working to lift my 5th wheel toy hauler. Lifts it with no problem. Fast, makes hooking up and unhooking a breeze. No more struggling like it would with the stock single motor setup. Wish I would have done this years ago, not when one of my legs gears stripped on the first day of a 5 day NASCAR weekend. Good thing I had a 6 ton bottle jack, several wood blocks, got it off my truck, enjoyed the weekend and ordered these first thing when I got home. Install wasn't bad, if you work on things, should be no problem. Mild modification of my trailer hangers and flooring in the storage where the legs are, but nothing major. Hooked up to my truck to take the weight off instead of using jack stands. About 6 hours total, took my time to do it right.
I bought this to replace the under powered OEM landing gear on my 2018 39' toy hauler 5th wheel. I received great service from etrailer staff. First time for me to remove and replace landing gear so after 1 or 2 youtube videos I was able to get it done with a little grinding and drilling (and cursing). I've been using the new landing gear for a year now and here are my thoughts: PROS: Ability to adjust the 2 sides independently. Makes leveling much easier. Quality hardware and stronger motors. CONS: The toggle switches that come with it are very stiff and a bit awkward to use. The pin at the bottom of each leg is not attached. You have to pull it out, then line it up with the hole to replace it. All others I've seen have a spring loaded guided pin. The legs don't go up or down any faster than the OEM. Although that was never claimed, I was hoping they would. Overall I am happy with the product. I will say, if I had to do it again I would strongly consider going with the competitor's product for the better controls and spring loaded pins.

Bulldog Tandem Landing Gear Set - Drop Leg - 36" Lift - 8,000 lbs
Delivery was on time, but the box it arrived in didn’t fair we’ll and parts were hanging out of the box! But everything was accounted for and the parts were well wrapped. Installation was very easy. The only issue was the locking pins mount plate is tack welded to the primary leg that the motor moves up and down. Those mounting plates had to be removed to install the lead and follow jacks. A grinder made short work of that. I didn’t put the mounting plates back on, instead I used my spring loaded pins that were on the old legs, they were still in good working condition. Also I didn’t use the adjustable cross over rod that came in the package . I opted to use the one that was on my old jacks, it was constructed of heaven gauge tubing and didn’t have a much (slop) movement in it. Also did not use the plastic housing gear box, I purchased a aluminum house gear box from e-trailer a few months back and used that one keeping the plastic for a spare. Very satisfied.
The leg pin came out because of the design, it is not a strong locking mechanism to not pull it all the way out. (My wife pulled it all the way out) Afyer furthet inspection, in addition to poor locking mechanism, the size of the pin is not adequate for the specified weight of the jack.

Bulldog Square Jack - Drop Leg w/ Spring Return - Sidewind - 26" Lift - 10,000 lbs
This was a replacement jack for a flat bed trailer. Installed it and it was just like the old one. Very happy with the jack, I recommend it highly.
Heavy duty, well-built jack. I decided to upgrade my trailer jack for poor performance and after searching the net I came across a video from etrailer describing the features of the Bulldog Square Jack # BD182804. It has every feature you need and some. With the upgrade, I must mention there was welding involved. I first confirmed there was structural support where the jack was to be mounted. I disassembled the jack per the video, located and welded the housing in place, reassembled the jack and lubed with the same grease I use for my trailer axles. It was that easy.
