How to Determine the Lift Capacity You Need in a Jack

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.


Trailer and Camper Jack Lift

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.

I was extremely impressed with the recent technical and customer support from etrailer. Over the weekend, they answered my questions to select the appropriate replacement electric jack for my Airstream. Also, when there was a shipping delay (not etrailer’s fault), Rose provided prompt responses and professional support. I will continue to use etrailer for my RV needs.



by:

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



by:

Works flawlessly. Maybe the only thing I could complain about is it is slower than I think it could be. Along with the side lights could always be brighter. Works great, install kit is awesome, and it works without a stutter.

Amazing! I would have replaced mine sooner with this and I known. It’s not faster but way more confident, quiet, and has a larger extension without taking up much more space.

Great. Not as quick as I expected.



by:

Had been contemplating this purchase/install for a couple of years. Finally bit the bullet. Purchase was simple. Shipping was a day late in arriving, not a real issue, because I live in a rural area. Shipping delays are expected.
Installation was very straight forward, remove three bolts, replace three bolts. That was all there was as far as the mechanical installation. For the electrical portion I elected to splice into the battery power wire that is part of the 7-wire electric cable on the trailer, in lieu of running a dedicated #10 wire direct from the trailer battery.
The jack seems to operate just fine, as anticipated. I have run the jack a number of times over the last few days without issue.
Why not a 5 star review, just haven't owned it long enough nor operated the jack enough. Ask me in 5 years.



by:

Absolutely wonderful. I would never have another horse trailer without a Stromberg Carlson Trailer Jack 5000.

@Jerry We're glad to hear you're happy with your trailer jack!

I own 10 trailers for business, I have used many electric tongue jacks. This one stands up to the abuse and time in the weather. Recommend this unit to anyone wanting a reliable electric tongue jack. It is not fast, but it is strong



by:

It was easy to install and has power to spare. I installed it on a 6000 lb travel trailer that requires the truck to be lifted to easily remove the weight distribution bars. My old jack struggled with the weight. Not this one. Lots of power. It's a simple jack. No memory functions, no auto retract feature. Just two buttons. One to raise and lower the front of the trailer, and one for the lights. My issues are that the lights are essentially worthless. They don't produce much light and being on the side of the unit, they aren't aimed where you need them to be. Also, you have to buy their kit to have a place to hang the chains and the cord or, buy a cover that allows you to do the same. I recommend you buy the cover by the way. Solid buy recommendation



by:

This was a complete gamechanger for us. We formerly had a power jack rated for 2500 lbs. Every time I had to raise it, the whole trailer swayed. It also didn't have the adjustable base, so the height was restricted. Moving up to this jack means no more sway and the option for an additional 5 inches of height. Installation was super simple, as well. Thank you, etrailer, for making it so I no longer live in terror of raising my jack.



by:

Works well, dependable.



by:

Trailer jack was defective. etrailer.com passed the buck to the manufacturer. The manufacturer was not very receptive and expected me to repair the jack. I purchased a new one and shouldn't have to try to figure out why it wasn't working. I want a new one and should get it from etrailer since I purchased it from them.



by:

We really like our electric jack. It is everything we excepted.

It is getting slower and slower to lift the trailer. Is there anything that needs lubricants?

Etrailer Expert

Mike L.

11/15/2023

@Grant The only lubrication needed is the inner jack tube. Stromberg Carlson recommends fully extending the jack which fully exposes the inner tube. Thoroughly clean the tube then lubricate it with a thin coat of grease or a silicone spray lubricant. As far as the jack operating slowly, be sure the battery is fully charged and full power is reaching the jack. Also, the jack picks up its ground connection via its attachment to the trailer tongue. Make sure this connection is secure and not corroded. Hope that helps!

Getting slower in lifting the trailer

Etrailer Expert

Mike L.

11/18/2023

@Grant Make sure the battery is fully charged and the jack is getting a full 12-volts. The jack gets its ground connection via its connection to the trailer tongue, so make sure the connection point between the jack and trailer tongue isn't corroded.


by:

Extremely sturdy, built well and a breeze to install. Amazingly quiet! Lifts the front of my 32' toy hauler effortlessly, very pleased with this jack and I am most definitely going to recommend this to my parents and friends. Oh, and quick shipping, received the jack in three days!



by:

The jack has performed great over the past year. The only minor comment would be that the integrated light hasn't been bright enough to use for other tasks other than seeing the switches. As that is as designed feature, it's only a minor inconvenience if you want more light at the trailer hitch.



by:

1 year later still no issues it fit perfect on my trailer and still works perfect



by:

Easy search for the product, arrived promptly. Easy install, awesome upgrade. Good to go for years to come!!

  • Will Husky Powered Jack Have Enough Capacity to Help Install Weight Distribution Spring Bars
    The lifting capacity of the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 is 5,000 lbs which is way more than you'd ever need to help alleviate tongue weight to hook up your spring bars. The capacity of this is rated by tongue weight. And you'd have no where near 5,000 lbs of tongue weight so this would easily take care of you.

  • Powered A Frame Jack Recommendation for Jayflight SLX 284BHSW
    I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000. It has a lifting capacity of 5,000 lbs which would be more than you'd need but will ensure that the jack will operate quickly and last a long time. Install is very easy. It's just a matter of bolting this in place of your old jack and then running the power wire to either the trailer battery or to the 12 volt circuit of your 7-way.

  • Troubleshooting Huskey Brute Electric Trailer Jack That Retracts But Doesnt Extend
    I highly doubt that the jack itself is the issue. Typically when a trailer jack has trouble extending but not retracting that is due to a bad ground connection or a depleted battery, with the battery being the more common of the two. Gravity helps when lowering the jack so the battery isn't having to put out much power whereas raising the trailer tongue relies solely on power from the battery. Start off by checking your ground connection and making sure that it is securely connected to...

  • Recommended A-Frame Electric Jack for Horse Trailer with Living Quarters
    If you are looking for an a-frame electric trailer jack for a horse trailer with living quarters, you are going to want to go with a heavy-duty option because of the heavy tongue on the trailer. The heavier you go, the longer the jack will last as it does not have to work as hard and the faster it will extend and retract. The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack part # JET-5000 is what I recommend because of the 5,000 lb weight capacity. That said, you could go with the Electric Jack...

  • Troubleshooting Operation of Electric Trailer Jack That Only Works with RV Shore Power Connection
    If your RV electric tongue jack functions properly when your trailer electrical system is connected to shore power (an AC outlet) but not when it is powered by the truck's 12V auxiliary power circuit then either the 7-way connectors on the truck and/or trailer could have corrosion on their contacts or the jack's motor may simply require more power than the truck's 7-way circuit can deliver. Electric tongue jacks can draw a lot of current when working near their maximum capacity. For example,...

  • Best A-Frame Powered Jack Recommendation
    For a powered jack for an A-frame trailer I like the Stromberg Carlson Electric Jack # JET-5000.

  • Recommendation to Replace Electric A-Frame Jack on 2019 R-Pod 190
    For your 2019 R-Pod 190 I highly recommend the Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000. This powered jack features a 5,000 pound weight capacity which is more than enough for the loaded tongue weight on the R-Pod, even with the tow vehicle attached. The over-rated nature of its capacity will result in easier lifting and a longer lifespan since it won't have to work as hard. It has a total lift of 23 inches and a retracted bracket height of 5 inches. I have attached a short video review that you...

  • Compatibility of Stromberg Carlson Electric Jack Replacing 2-1/4 Inch Outer Diameter Jack Tube
    The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Black # JET-5000 will work just fine as a replacement. The 1/16th inch you referenced is not a big issue in this case because the mounting bolt pattern will be the same.

  • Can The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack Be wired To The 7-Way Cable
    Yes, it's very common for people to connect a jack like the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 to the 12v accessory wire of the 7-way cable on the trailer. You'll just want to run the wire to the junction box on the trailer and test for power to find the 12v accessory wire and splice in there. Make sure that you wire it in with the fuse close to this point to protect the jack in the event of a power surge.

  • Trailer Jack Replacement for Lippert Powered Jack that Is Getting Slow to Operate
    Most likely the motor is going out or the screw/threads are getting rusty or otherwise damaged and it's time for a new jack. Lippert does not offer replacement motors so a new jack all together would be what you'd need. I recommend the Stromberg Carlson part # JET-5000. It would be a great replacement for your Lippert.

  • Replacement Powered Jack Recommendation for 2015 Keystone Hideout 27rbwe
    I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000. It has a lifting capacity of 5,000 lbs which would be more than you'd need but will ensure that the jack will operate quickly and last a long time. The capacity for a jack basically refers to the lifting strength needed for the tongue weight of the trailer. Your trailer would most likely have a tongue weight of 750 lbs which would be easy work for this jack.

  • Clearance Between Trailer Tongue Jack & Open Tailgate on Ford Expedition
    Without knowing your trailer's dimensions it is difficult to generalize about this jack clearing your open tailgate but you can measure the clearance you need for your Ford Expedition's open tailgate to clear the top of your trailer tongue jack. With the trailer hitched, open the gate and measure the distance from the underside of the open tail gate to the round jack mount on the trailer tongue. You want to choose a jack whose height above the trailer frame is less than the distance you...

  • Can the Head of the the Stromberg Carlson JET-5000 Be Rotated When Installed
    The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 uses a 3 bolt mounting flange to attach to an A-frame trailer. If you wanted to rotate the jack on this flange you certainly could, but it would not be at a 90 degree angle since the mounting flange is basically triangle shaped. It would be more like a 120 degree rotate.

  • Stromberg Carlson Trailer Jack Will Not Move
    If all of your wiring looks good and you have solid connections then the problem is most likely your ground. You will want to make sure that the ground on your Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000 has a solid, metal-to-metal, connection to your trailer frame. Any corrosion and sometimes paint can mess with the connection enough that it will make this stuff happen. If that isn't the problem let me know and I will help you troubleshoot further.

  • Troubleshooting Jack that Stopped Working and is Beeping
    We don't carry the Trailer Lift TL4500 jack that you have but it sounds like the motor is going bad and wanting to draw too much amperage or you have a weak trailer battery powering it. It can also be a weak ground for the jack wiring as well so you'd want to check there too to be sure. If you were thinking about replacing the jack the Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000 would be a fantastic option. This is a very reliable jack that we recommend highly.

    The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 that you referenced does come ready to easily be wired to your trailer's wiring, but it does not have a 7-way. You can either power the jack through the accessory circuit on the 7-way or via an auxiliary battery installed on the trailer. If you decide to power the jack through the accessory circuit, it is advisable to use a jack whose capacity greatly exceeds the tongue weight of your fully loaded horse trailer.

    It sounds like you may have blown a grease seal on the hub of your dolly. Replacing the seal would not be too hard, but we first would need to determine what seal you would need. To do that you will need to pull the hub and measure the inner diameter of the hub where the seal installs and then measure the outer diameter of the spindle where the seal rides.

    The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 uses a 12 volt system. The jack will perform better by drawing power from a nearby source rather than through the 7-way wiring harness.

If you prefer to use your vehicle power, this can be done by splicing into the trailer harness wiring. I have attached a photo that shows the position...

This jack has a 5,000 lb lifting capacity so it is more than strong enough for nearly every application. You should note that this figure does not mean the trailer has to weight less than 5,000 lbs.

    It sounds like you need a little more space. While there isn't a way to turn the head on trailer jack # JET-5000 you might be able to turn the whole jack since it has slotted mounting holes. That is the first thing to try. If that isn't going to work for you and the issue is there isn't enough space between the jack head and a lowered tailgate on a truck then the easiest solution is to use a longer ball mount.
