Best Forest River Cherokee Wolf Pup Travel Trailer Camper Jacks

My Jack arrived DOA. After installing it on my trailer, the Jack didn’t work. The manual crank handle came in handy because I didn’t have time to troubleshoot and repair it at the time. It was just a wire that was no longer connected to the switch but I have to tell you it was extremely disappointing to receive a brand new item that didn’t work. If it had worked out of the box, I’d give it a five star review. You should consider soldering and heat shrinking the wires to the switches or making the wires longer so they aren’t banjo string tight and putting the lug at a strange angle.

This particular jack fit my 2001 Horse trailer perfectly. I had it installed in about 2 hours due to clearances on this particular type of Tonge design. Otherwise with a couple box end wrenches and a hydraulic bottle jack this jack could be installed in 30 minutes. It appears to be a very good product for the money. Also, it has plenty of lift capacity. 8000 pounds which is perfect for my trailer.

if I had to rate this upgrade in difficulty one being the easiest five being the hardest, it would be a one. Super simple. Take the nuts and bolts off your old hardware and install the upgrade in its place. I read some of the reviews were people were annoyed with the counter clockwise rotation and the bolt sticking out too far. I really didn’t see a problem with either. I know you’re not supposed to use a drill to extend and retract these but I always have. I suppose as long as you’re not torquing the heck out of the adjustment screw you shouldn’t have any problems. I always put a small flat 2 x 6 piece of wood under the foot of each one of these. It seems to add quite a bit of stability.

The jacks themselves have worked great, they keep the trailer level and solid during our concession events. I just had them mounted to the trailer so I don't have to put them in and out at each event. The jack handles leave a bit to be desired so I use a 20v drill w/ a 3/4" socket to run them up and down.

One small part was missing from my Ground Control TT. Carol Korren expedited delivery of the missing part and the UPS truck pulled up at the moment I needed the part. Fantastic customer service!

This works great and has been the very best upgrade on any RV/Trailer I have every owned. I will never own another trailer that does not have this.

Great product. works just fine. The problem I had was matching the mounting plate under my trailer. Apparently not a standard so I had to take it to a trailer manufacturer to make it fit.

They went on a custom made trailer build that’s not yet in service. Seem to function as advertised.

Works great as a stabilizer. I have a 38' trailer and I use screw jacks to level the trailer. Once the trailer is level I lower the stabilizer jacks to eliminate any movement. With this combination the trailer does not move one bit.

There's not a lot to say. The first Stabilizer carton was damaged to the point the carrier couldn't even find the Stabilizer. etrailer.com was very cooperative & sent a second unit out right away. Although the second shipment packaging was damaged all parts were there and undamaged. I installed the unit and it is so so much better, quieter and faster than the old unit. I highly recommend both Lippert and etrailer.com

The powerhead is very large and extends forward, which has caused it to impact upon two different vehicles when backing the trailer. The power function is now useless, and I am using the manual crank to raise and lower the jack.

Sturdy jack, easy to install. We installed it facing to the driver's side so we can still put our tailgate down. Very powerful jack, only drawback is it is very slow.

I should have got one years ago. I only use it when it's connected to the truck with the engine running. This I believe gives me full power. It has enough power to raise the trailer when connected to the truck to get the anti sway bars attached. Sure beats all that hand cranking.

The alternate power setup makes its slow rate of rise necessary which would be good if my lithium batteries went low. To avoid battery problems be sure to add an inline battery disconnect from the trailer power when using tow vehicle power. I simple added an inline fuse that could be removed should I need to use the tow vehicle power.

I purchased this jack to replace my tired 10 year old camper jack . I ordered it at 10:00 AM Monday and as promised by Ian it was at my doorstep on Friday just in time for my weekend getaway . Installation was a breeze . I gave the product a 4 out of 5 for a few reasons . First , I was not able to see the manufacturer of the jack before receiving it . Which made name brand comparison pricing difficult . However I feel pricing was on target . Second , I feel that the jack should come with a battery terminal end connector and new mounting bolts with the hardware that was included . This didn’t pose any difficulty to me as I had hardware at hand but for some it will mean a trip or two to the hardware store . Third , once installed , at least with my truck and trailer , unless the truck and trailer are perfectly aligned and level the jack motor gets in the way of opening the tail gate . On first use I noticed it was much slower than my original but the strength made up for it . This jack had no difficulty or hesitation lifting my truck and trailer for load distribution and anti sway bar installation . I would recommend etrailer and this product . Time will be the final test of its durability .

Ok.... the customer service from ETRAILER totally saved the review! These guys are incredibly awesome. I ordered 2 of the jacks. The first came with a broken housing cover , the light had beed disloged, and the up down switch was wired backwards. (Up would put the jack down and down would put the jack up) Solution? Glad you asked! I contacted ram about the cover.... waiting! The light was easy to correct, just had to slide it back into the slit that holds it. Switch, well.... if-your2 not comfortable with wiring, I recommend not even attempt to rewire. I just popped it out of the cover, twisted 1/2 turn, popped it back in. Total time to correct.... 8-10 minutes. Total time to install, 15 minutes. Total job less than 30 minutes. Would I recommend this jack... YES. Despite a shipping issue to crack the housing ... its easy to install, price right, powerful. I dont have to hand crank. Simple correction to the switch. And they could use some r&d improvment on the light... but excellent jack! It does what i meeded it to at an affordable price!

The cover over the light on the jack was not attached and there was a piece broken on the case. I thought of sending it back but decided quicker and easier to just repair it myself. See photo

After a year still works great……easy to install, and didn’t need the light because I had already installed a rear utility light to my truck to hook up trailers but for those who don’t have a back light it is much easier than a flashlight. Great product!

Perfect! My weld for rear bumper was in the way of the bracket, so I just swapped 1 bracket each side from the old jacks, jacks were same size but rated lighter weight. Thanks for quick delivery! Always like the tutorials and pictures.

The box was a bit beat up when it arrived, but hopefully everything is intact.

These are great jacks. I have 3 of them. The only reason I replace one was because I bent it. Let's not go there.

This jack was the perfect solution for my application. I have a new enclosed trailer that came with a manual crank and only a tiny battery to run the lights. I did not want the expense of having to buy and cable up a larger battery to just support the tongue jack. Took me 5 minutes to install this new jack using the three bolts that were already on my OEM jack. Now I just back up my truck, plug in the 7-way, and I'm able to move the tongue up and down as needed. Great!

Overall the product does exactly what it's intended for and works well. I however assumed that this would be a simple R&R for my camper and did very little installation research other that the video provided on etrailer' s website Sadly it did not fit. Not at all. I didn't take into account that have a double framed hitch toyhauler. The baseplate on the factory leg was a TRIANGLE.....this unit was ROUND. Also the primary shaft was thicker than stock and would not drop down into place I know modifying is frowned upon, but I found that ALL powered hitch legs I found have round mounting plates and it's not mentioned the leg tube is thicker than OEM? Since NOT having a power lift wasn't an option for this camper application...too heavy in the front when ATVS loaded to lift for setting the equalizer hitch tension bars, I proceeded to modify by cutting the rear rounded mounting base ... square. Took off about 1/2 inch. Then I took my metal Dremel sanding bit and increased the hitch leg hole diameter slightly. Took about 1 hr. Dropped it in. Wired it. Tested it. All good. If you can't post this I understand, but take note that some of your website descriptions may need to be enhanced. Thanks!

I ordered the Reese Bulldog 4000lb power tongue jack on 6/2 and received it on 6/6, my second order from etrailer and it came just as fast as the hitch that I ordered from them previously. The jack was characteristically well packaged so everything was received in perfect condition. The installation took a half hour, including hitching the trailer up to my truck and unhitching after the swap out. I did read the instructions quickly before starting and I would recommend that anyone doing the installation do so as well, just to avoid any hick-ups. Overall it was a very easy installation. Because of limited space I did have to mount the jack sideways, so I appreciate that Reese gave me that option. The one item that I did not finish was a permanent power hook-up. The power wire provided was too short so I will be putting a connector inline so that I can route the wire to the battery terminal.

Ordered a power stabilizer jack for my 2012 Jayco fifth wheel in 2023 , easy to install the item myself , stabilizer working great , will buy future items at this site , thanks

The stabilizer works well. I would buy it again

One of the best additions to our 5th wheel yet! I added these myself and it was not too hard, but I do have the proper tools. One install issue was around the pushout where I had to modify a bracket(see photos) We did a coast to coast and stayed in a LOT of places. These jacks worked very well as long as I got reasonably level side to side first. A few inches out is fine so most spots were a breeze, a few I needed to be on blocks so the tires did not come off the ground. The phone app is great to see initial level from the drivers seat, but I did most final leveling from the control pad. Overall great product and I recommend them especially if you are setting and breaking camp a lot.

shipped in a timely manner. Easy install wit good instructions. I did have one question about the location of the rear lifts and called the company and we had an answer instantly. Wiring was very easy with good instructions. The system worked on the first try and have had no issues so far. Great system. I was looking at newer campers with auto leveling and about 40 to $50,ooo if I traded my paid for camper in. The cost saved me a lot of money and works as it should and saves my back and a lot of set up time. would and have recommended to others. Thanks.

After the initial installation there was a little confusion about setup I have been very happy with the way it works really simple push one button hit auto levels it's still working well thanks

Let me say this to start, this system is AWESOME!! If you do not have a leveling system on your camper, this one works very , very well. I will say, the install and the learning curve takes time and is not too hard, but it's not super easy either. Once I got the system in place, and understood how to use it, the rest was a piece of cake. Take your time on the install and get help. The parts are robust and heavy, so two people make it much easier. Have sharp drill bits to drill the attachment holes. Wiring is super simple, but take your time and make sure you get all the connections good and tight and secured well with zip ties. The system requires a good strong battery, so make sure your battery is in great shape and you will not have any issues. Get the Lippert app also, it is very helpful. I love it now, when I pull my 2006 Keystone Raptor 5th wheel toy hauler into a campsite, I hit a couple buttons and the longest it has taken to level my unit is 2 minutes and 30 seconds. I love it! It puts the camper at the same level every single time, which is awesome. No guessing, no driving up and down on blocks, just push a button and walk away until the camper is perfect. Would I do this over again you ask? Absolutely. Awesome system!

This Bulldog replaced an Atwood jack on our Lance 1575. The Bulldog is quiet, but there is a fair amount of play between the inner and outer tubes. It feels unstable even when fully retracted. This wasn't the case with my old Atwood jack. If I had known this, I would have gone with another brand. I bought the Bulldog based on the reviews and the warranty, so I was surprised that there is so much wobble in it.

Installation was quick and easy per the instructions and eTrailer video. One of the few times I've had something "bolt right in/on" LOL. It has worked flawlessly in the time that I've been using it. The only drawback, and it is a small issue, is that it is easy in the heat of battle to bump the light switch ON and not see it in the daylight. One just needs to be careful or use a bit of tape to secure light switch OFF until needed. Another great product from etailer.

Hello, Please see pics below of broken weld on jack. The jack was just installed and in use for about 7 days and noted the broken weld. Jack functions as described, however, we question the durability of the jack.

Definitely has the power I need however I can't open my tailgate when my camper is hooked up. 5 stars for power.

Took the sway out 95%. Excellent customer service! Quality product.

Before I purchased the Strong Arm my travel trailer would shake considerably when someone would move around the trailer. Since installing the Strong Arm system (which was quite easy to do) movement about the trailer is no longer an irritating issue.

I love the feature of the auto retract, however, it is super slow. Either way, I can now confidently walk away from my ice shack and know the jack will fully retract every time.

I purchased this jack because it is the exact same model as the jack installed on the trailer at the factory. I have attached a photo of the one I removed. I had the trailer power washed and the spray damaged the membrane that covered the three switches that operate the jack. The resulting exposure damaged the switches which could not be repaired. Not the best design in my opinion.

Installed jack on trailer, tested with a battery. Works great, it will lift my cargo trailer high enough for my 3/4 ton Ram. In the past have had to carry 3 blocks for the screw jack, now only a small one just to keep the steel jack pad off the cement or ground. Have not wired the new jack yet, we still have winter here in ND and will not use it until the end of April. The jack, I believe, will work fine. I forgot to order a cover for it when I ordered the jack, just did that this morning. Thank you etrailer.

The jack works great. I didn’t have any problems with the installation. My only issue is that the holes are 90° off for my Fastway jack foot which goes up automatically. I’m debating whether to leave the jack 90° off or drill new holes in the jack.
