Video Transcript for Bulldog Camper Jack - Landing Gear - BD183816 Review
Today were going to review part number bd183816. This is the Bulldog Square Jack, two speed jack with a spring return drop leg and the planetary gears. This jack is a two speed design which makes cranking faster and easier. It has a low gear which will give you full lifting power in a ratio of one inch for every 27 turns. It has a high gear which will give you ultimate speed with one inch movement for every nine turns. This is the fastest in the weight class.
This jack is ideal for standard agricultural, construction and industrial trailer applications. This planetary gear box which is this right here makes switching gears fast and easy, no need to reposition the crank. It eliminates the need for spacers by fitting within the jacks profile. Basically this would be in the high gear right now to get it into the low gear you would just pull it out and you can see that it extends out. Then as youre cranking it in low gear for every 27 turns it will move the jack one inch.
Then if you want to put it into the high gear this will give you ultimate speed where it will raise or lower the jack one inch for every nine turns. It is a smooth and simple operation. It does have painted surfaces on the inner tubes, the outer tubes, and the drop leg for good weather resistance. The drop leg does have a sprint return which will increase the overall extension for maximum adjustability. It does have a plunger pin which is positioned on the front.
The standard foot plate is included. Now the side-wide crank is not included but if you go to the product page for this part number on the right side of the page will be a box of related products. It will list the correct side-wide crank for this jack. Just to show you how the drop leg will work. You just pull the plunger pin out, lock it into position.
Then you can pull down the spring loaded drop leg and itll have adjustment holes up and down the leg. When you find the right height you want, release the plunger pin, it would move into the holes on the drop leg and hold it at that height. Then when you are ready to remove it just again pull out the plunger pin and because its spring loaded the drop leg will automatically retract up into the jack. I do want to give you a few measurements. This jack here Ive already cranked to the fully retracted position. The total height on this fully retracted would be 29 and a half inches. Now I did pull another exact same jack and to save time Ive already cranked it out to the fully extended position. That would give you 42 inches on this fully extended. That would give you a maximum lift on this jack of 12 and a half inches. The drop leg will give you extra amount of travel of 13 and a half inches. The width on this square tubing on this jack will be four inches. This jack does have a static weight capacity of 12,000 pounds and a lift capacity of 10,000 pounds. It does come with a limited five year warranty. Basically I just want to show you again how youd move it from low gear to high gear. Right now it is in the high gear. You would just pull out on the handle and it will move it out into the low gear. If you just push it back in it will put it into the low gear. That should do it for a review on part number bd182815.

My 1st 2 speeed Unit I have always been happy with the "Bulldog" brand products .... and was a little skeptical of the planetary gearbox and the "shifting" from High to Low. I have no reservations now!!!! The unit works flawless!!! shifting is easy and "crisp" This was my first purchase from etrailer, .... WoW I have bought from many on line stores ...... I have never seen the follow up, attention to detail and quality coorespondence that etrailer has demonstrated on this purchase!!!!! I definately will have etrailer in my Favorites list!!!!!!!! 5101

After welding some mounting brackets onto the jack, mounting and hooking up the wires, was very simple. Bulldog makes a good product. Mark M. Was very helpful and knowledgeable enough about his product line to help get the right jack for my application. 239416

Do you have a question about this Camper Jack?
- Which Bulldog Powered Drive Kit Works with 2 Speed Bulldog Landing Gear Trailer Jacks
- A 2 speed jack will have a second gear set attached to the jack. It would either be operated by taking the handle off of the first speed and moving it to a separate spot on the jack for the second speed or, more commonly, the crank handle will be pushed in or pulled out to engage the second gear set. Take a look at the Bulldog 2-Speed Jack, # BD183816, as an example.
It does matter between single and 2 speed when you are looking to add a powered drive kit. The powered drive, # BD1824200100,...
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between a Horizontal Clevis Crank Handle and a Vertical Clevis Crank Handle
- The clevis in regards to Bulldog 2-Speed Jack, part # BD183816, is the style of the crank handle for the jack. The difference is in the alignment of the pivot point to the rest of the crank handle.
A horizontal clevis crank handle when folded up will pivot almost like a wing and lay flat on the side of the trailer when not in use, whereas a vertical clevis crank handle will pivot in like an elbow and fold in to the trailer and be secured in place.

- The difference between a jack with a traditional gear box and a jack with a planetary gear box is the gears inside the unit, the number of shafts on the unit and the attachment of the units to the jack.
The gears in a planetary gear box use gears that can be moved to change speeds, this type of gear box has gears that can be sized very differently also. This gear box can be changed out and the operation of the jack is very smooth. To change speeds on this jack a single shaft is moved...
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between Bulldog Landing Gear Jack # BD183416 and # BD183816
- Basically, the difference between Bulldog jack # BD183416 and # BD183816 is the plunger. On the first one, # BD183416, it has a non-spring return plunger. This means that when you pull out the pin to drop or raise the leg, you have to manually re-insert the pin to secure the leg.
On jack # BD183816, it has a spring return. This means that after you pull the pin out to adjust the leg, a spring will put tension on the pin and automatically push it back into a hole in the jack leg (unless...

The overall width dimension of the inner square tube is 3-1/2 inches.

- The Bulldog 2-speed jack # BD183816, that you referenced would work well as a jack in a tandem setup for you. Each of these jacks is rated for 12000lbs, so they would work well on your dump trailer that has a 20000lb GVW.
I spoke with my contact at Bulldog about whether or not you can use the 2-speed function of this jack when used in tandem and he said that you will be limited to only one gear when jacks are used in tandem.

There are are two possible options for cranks. One is the Bulldog Sidewind Jack Crank Assembly with Horizontal Clevis, # BD800090 and the other is Bulldog Sidewind Jack Crank Assembly with Vertical Clevis, # BD015181.

This does not come in white but you could have it painted white if you wanted.
view full answer... - Can I Replace Just One Jack on 2012 PJ Flatbed Trailer With Bulldog 2-Speed Jack, Part # BD183816
- In order for your existing single-speed trailer jack to work with the Bulldog 2-Speed Jack - Drop Leg w/ Spring Return, part # BD183816, it is essential that the existing jack have a cranking ratio (the number of handle turns that moves the jack one inch) that is the same as the 9-turns-per-inch high gear ratio of the Bulldog. If the two jacks do not have the same turns ratio, then the trailer will elevate unevenly, creating a safety hazard.

view full answer... - Would Bulldog Jacks # BD182815 and # BD183816 Work Well on 24k Trailer
- If you ran the Bulldog Jacks part # BD182815 and # BD183816 on a trailer that weighed a max of 24k you'd be good. Each of these jacks has a 10k lifting capacity so you'd have 20k of lifting capacity which is more than enough for the front of a 24k trailer. The jacks are not rated for the total trailer weight and are instead just rated for the amount they can lift vertically.

- The Bulldog Powered-Drive Kit # BD1824180100 that you referenced is not compatible with landing gear like the Bulldog 2-Speed Jack, Traditional, 10,000 pounds # BD183901. My contact at Bulldog confirmed that there is not a motor kit available for the jacks with the triangular gear housing, like that on the # BD183901 landing gear jack.
To be compatible with a powered-drive kit, you will want to update your existing landing gear with either single speed landing gear or 2-speed landing...

- The Bulldog Powered-Drive Kit for OEM 2-Speed Planetary Jacks # BD1824180100 that you referenced is compatible with the Bulldog 2-Speed Jack # BD183816 but not the part # BD183903 that you referenced. However, when you install the Powered Drive Kit part # BD1824180100 you limit the jack to a single speed. With typical load lifts this motor will lift at a rate of 3 inches per minute.
view full answer... - Can the Bulldog Powered-Drive Kit be Used on Any Jack
- The Bulldog Powered-Drive Kit part # BD1824180100 is for two speed jacks whereas the Bulldog Powered-Drive Kit part # BD1824200100 is for single speed jacks. However, we can only confirm that these work with Bulldog jacks that have a 12,000 lb support capacity like part # BD182400 for single speed or part # BD183816 for two speed.

view full answer... - How to Tell if a Bulldog 10K/12K Jack is a Single Speed or 2-Speed
- The Bulldog 10K/12K jacks with 2-speeds will have a gear box on them such as # BD183816 and so for it you would use powered drive kit # BD1824180100.
The single speed jacks will not have a gear box like # BD182815 so you would use kit # BD1824200100.

- I went to our warehouse and measured the Bulldog 2-Speed Planetary Jack # BD183816 to get you the dimensions you need.

- The Bulldog powered drive kits we offer like the part # BD1824180100 and the # BD1824200100 are only fits for Bulldog jacks that have 12k capacities. The part # BD1824200100 is for single speed jacks and the # BD1824180100 is only for 12k 2 speed jacks.

- I spoke to my contact at Bulldog who said that the Model 12, 180 Series Bulldog jack that you have is the older version of the the current 10K jacks like part # BD182500. Since you have the older version without the spring that you mentioned seeing in other videos it means that pin you are trying to remove has knurls on it. When it was first installed that pin hole was smooth and the knurls on the pin basically "carved" into that pin hole.
