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.

Jack works very well. Not fast but gets the job done. Unfortunately I can't lower my tailgate fully without hitting the jack. Tried to rotate the head as I saw some jacks allowed. This one won't allow that. Very satisfied otherwise. Used less than one full season so can't offer an opinion on durability.
by: Otto S.09/28/2016
Mounted quick and easy. Plenty of wire for electrical hook up. Lots of power even with a full load of water in the front tank. The only change I made to installation was longer bolts to accept washers and nuts to the bottom side of hitch. I didn't trust the taped holes in the thin hitch frame. This was no fault of the new jack. Still working strong. A back saver that's worth the money. I should have bought one years ago!

What a wonderful invention. Caution must be used when retracting. Too bad some kind of stop isnt used. But it sure works good!

Put this jack on the trailer tongue in less than an hour. Moves the tongue of a 29' 6500 lb travel trailer up and down easily. I did not find it particularly slow. Install tips: I used a two ton bottle jack and static jack stand to support the tongue while working. Check trailer negative grounding with a voltage tester, just to be sure you get a good circuit. I attached power cord via fuse directly to positive battery terminal and stowed the extra wire/fuse in the battery box. (My trailer has a power line and blade-fuse from the trailer's junction box for the previous jack but it had an occasional short so I didn't use it. If your trailer has a dependable powerline for a jack, use it.) I'm putting a 10L dry-sack over the powerhead to keep out rain, road dirt and bugs. An extra layer of protection never hurts. I hope this holds up better than the factory installed L*****t. I'll write a follow up review in a year or so. And as always, thanks etrailer for great service, great prices, and fast shipping.

I purchased 2 of these a year ago to replace a hand crank on a cargo trailer. I wanted to modify the tongue of a trailer where the crank was in the way of loading and unloading a work van. The push of a button, in this case two, is way easier and much faster than old school hand power. It worked out so well, I did a dump trailer as well. Then, a friends trailer. I might be starting a trend.

My Stromberg Carlson power jack is still working well. As for all my belongings I take good care of it, that should make it work for a long time I hope...
by: Paul R10/07/2017
Great service from etrailer.com. Ordered the jack and a Fastway e2 Trunion hitch on Saturday, and had them at my door the following Wednesday.
Got everything installed today and all works great. I did notice that even with proper torquing, the mounting plate on the jack bent a bit under load of my Flagstaff pop-up. Works great...but I'll have to keep an eye on that mount. Directions call for an underplate, which I don't have room for on my trailer tongue.
by: Scott06/22/2018
I had this jack on my last trailer and I liked it. It is nice that it has a level as part of the cover to get you close. My trailer is 5,500 lbs and this jack has no issues with lifting the tongue. I do not like the glass fuse and holder that comes with it. The same fuse holder failed on my last trailer. So when I ordered this one for my new camper I stopped by the auto parts store and got a good quality sealed blade fuse holder. I thought I had read that this did not come with the mounting bolts. It does. I used longer bolts with additional fender washers and lock nuts. Ordering from etrailer is the best. It was convenient, easy, and the price is really good.

I ordered the Stromberg Carlson electric tongue jack from etrailer told them I needed it right away because we were traveling and mine had broke. They shipped it right away. I had it on the 3rd day I installed it and was back on the road. This is not the first time I have used etrailer and it will not be the last.
by: Christopher 05/26/2023
It works! It fit! The little bubble level on top doesn't seem to be accurate but I didn't buy it for the level anyway; price I think drove my decision.
by: Allen05/17/2019
Installed in minutes, holes lined up like they should. Just added a connection to wire and hooked it to battery and everything worked good. No more hand cranking and it looks good on the camper!
by: Steve02/08/2017
I can't review the electric trailer jack since it is winter and I won't be installing it for several months. But I can rate etrailer and the order speed. I ordered the jack on Sunday evening and it was delivered Wednesday morning. No problem there!

I love the jack, far less effort for a retiree and the manual jack was starting to feel like it was worn and might slip. I keep the manual jack in the trailer just in case but I had zero problems with the electric jack and used it dozens of times last summer.
by: Larry 09/17/2022
Installed easily and I chose to power it from my truck, which meant I only had to add an RV plug to match trailer connection. Minutes later it was operational and has performed perfectly for a year. Nice smooth operation and wintered well. Quite happy! A++
by: Jeff 12/16/2022
The only thing keeping this from a 5 star review is the fact that the description says it has 24" lift but the actual fact is an 18" lift with a 5" extension foot giving it a 23" lift total. Other than that it does exactly what it says and appears to be well built. ETrailer has always provided great delivery and service.
by: Troy07/05/2018
Well packaged.(bought brand "x" on another site first,arrived broken).Easy installation.Works great.I highly recommend this product.Makes hooking and unhooking much easier.I have bought several products from e.trailer,never disappointed.

I have used it a lot. Has never missed a beat.
by: Mark M.04/28/2019
I installed this Stromberg Carlson electric jack about a year ago. Installation was very easy (I installed it while hitched to tow vehicle - don't use your stabilizers to hold your up your trailer weight). The jack worked great on several outings last year - great time (and back) saver when setting up. However, we just bought a bigger trailer (used) and I wanted to swap this with the factory electric jack on the new trailer. The dealer agreed it was a good jack but he wouldn't let me swap. Oh well, I'll probably be replacing that one with another Stromberg Carlson soon. Also, I found the best price here of all vendors when I initially shopped for it.
by: Carl m07/28/2017
Easy took about 15 mins to install and test . kind of slow but will work fine like it came with a crank in case battery is dead .was shipped very fast
by: Mike M.03/17/2017
After a year of use, I am still very pleased with my electric Jack. It moves up and down at a good speed. It handles the 700 lbs of tongue weight of our travel trailer with no struggle. It is relatively attractive compared to some others. The white cover matches the propane bottle cover behind it. My only complaint is I wish the lights were a little brighter. They are better than fumbling with a flashlight in the pitch dark, but just not as bright as I had expected. All in all, I am very pleased and would buy another without any reservation.
by: Georgia06/20/2019
Put it on my trailer last year, used it twice camping last year and went out for the first time this year and it doesn't work!! Had to use the hand crank!!

The first step in troubleshooting is to check that the jack is receiving power from the trailer mounted battery, and to check the power connections and the battery ground to the trailer. Youll also want to make sure that the spot where the jack bolts to the trailer tongue isnt corroded, as corrosion will interfere with a good ground connection. The jack is covered by a 2 year warranty, so if the items I mentioned above check out okay, please contact our Customer Service folks at 800-298-8924.

Item is well packaged from factory for shipping. Received item quickly from warehouse. Time to install from opening package to lifting the camper was 8 minutes 30 seconds. It took 3 minutes to look at the fuzzy diagram on where the star nuts go when putting the three bolts back into the frame. Be sure to have a 10-12 gauge butt connector or something equal to your application, as no electrical connections are supplies. All in all, I would buy this again and will recommend this to others who might need to have an electrical jack replaced.

My existing jack is unreliable and the new product should do that for me.

This new jack has been smooth, quiet, strong and reliable after over a year of use. It was a welcome upgrade over the original jack.
by: Cecilia04/08/2018
Love our jack! Lifting out trailer just got so much easier! Now if only the jack removed grease from the hitch ball!
by: Ronald 09/28/2018
The installation was easy and the new jack works very well. Better than the original.
The only problem - No wire connectors or fuse in the package. Had to buy some at local hardware.
Enjoyed the fast shipment.
Will be using this week on a fall trip to Vermont
by: Timothy11/06/2018
This product arrived within a couple of days after ordering. It was in good shape and ready for installation. It was an easy, quick install and works very well. I am completely satisfied with this jack and will probably order from etrailer.com again.

- Replacement Jack Recommendation to Replace a Lippert 1300 Powered JackThe Lippert 1300 jack is a now discontinued jack that is very similar to the Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 which does not have any internal replaceable parts. The only solution you have would be to replace your current jack with something like the part # JET-3555.
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Jack For Lippert Smart Jack With Damaged Buttons Causing Water To Get InI have a complete replacement jack option for you, but the buttons on your Lippert Smart Jack # LC643589 are not replaceable so the only option is a complete replacement. If your jack is still within the 1-year warranty period then I recommend reaching out to whoever you purchased from to get it replaced. If you are outside of your warranty period then you should take a look at the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 24" Lift - 3,500 lbs - White, Item # JET-3555....

- Replacement Drop Leg/Foot Plate for Stromberg Carlson Powered Jack JET-3555For just the drop leg with the foot for the Stromberg Carlson # JET-3555 you would want the part # 2500-3755G and then if you need the pin you would want the part # 2500-26.

I have added links to some video reviews for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Stromberg Carlson Jack JET-3555 be Rotated to Match the Bolt Holes on a Trailer?The head on the Stromberg Carlson # JET-3555 is fixed in place and cannot be rotated. However, if you are referring to rotating the whole jack to get the holes to line up on mounting bracket, then yes you can.
view full answer... - Tube Thickness Of The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack I went out to the warehouse and measured the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555 with a digital caliper and got the same measurements as what is written in the product description. Randy should have used a caliper instead of a tape measure to take away any guesswork on the dimensions.
view full answer... - Replacement Trailer Jack for 2003 Coachmen Clipper Sport 106It looks like from the photos I was able to find, the 2003 Coachmen Clipper Sport 106 will take a standard A-frame trailer jack. For that reason you can use something like the Buyers Products A-Frame Jack w/ Support Foot - 15" Travel - 2,000 lbs # 3370091260, which will work with trailers that have a tongue weight of up to 2000-lbs-so it's well rated for your trailer. With that said, if you've got a battery to connect to I recommend an electric A-frame trailer jack like the Stromberg Carlson...
view full answer... - Can the Stromberg Carlson Electric Jack Part # JET-3555 be Ran to the Vehicle's Battery The length of wire needed to attach the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack part # JET-3555 to your vehicle's battery is more than likely causing a substantial loss in power which is why the jack will not work. I recommend installing a 12 volt auxiliary battery on the trailer and use that to power the jack. You can then use the 12 volt power on the trailer connector (7-way only) to provide a maintenance charge for the battery used for the jack. I have attached a review video for you.

This jack fits the industry standard A-Frame jack mounting point and its 3500lb capacity will be plenty for the tongue weight of your trailer, and will be able to jack up the trailer once connected to the weight distribution shank of your system to...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting No Power to Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack If you aren't getting any power to your Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555, I recommend checking to make sure it has a solid ground connection. This jack grounds through its mounting hardware, so you will want to make sure that there isn't any debris or corrosion between the jack and the surface on the trailer where it mounts. You can try removing the jack and cleaning the surface before reinstalling to see if it helps. If this does not resolve the issue, please let me...
view full answer... - Can the Powered A-Frame Jack JET-3555 Be Powered by Parallel Trailer BatteriesYour batteries are run in parallel and the Powered A-Frame Jack part # JET-3555 can be wired to them and still allow you to take advantage of the extended battery life of having batteries set up like this. You would just need to run the power wire of the # JET-3555 to the main output power wire of your paralleled battery and since this jack grounds through the mounting hardware you would be good to go once installed.
view full answer... - Powered Trailer Jack Recommendation for Best Ground Clearance Under Trailer FrameI wouldn't let the higher capacity of the Lippert Jack part # JET-3555 deter you from using it. Having more capacity than needed for a trailer jack is actually a good thing as it will allow the jack to last longer and operate quicker. It's retracted bracket height is 6-3/4 inches so it would work well for you in that regard plus it's priced great so it really would be your best option.
view full answer... - Can An A-Frame Trailer Jack Be Wired To The 7-Pole Cable Yes, it is possible to wire your Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555 into the 7-way. There isn't much room inside of the 7-pole plug so the easiest way to power your jack from the 7-pole would be to wire it to the 12v power in your trailer's junction box. If you follow the 7-way cable along the frame of the trailer you'll see some sort of box where the wires from the cable will run and connect to the wires for your trailer's lighting and brakes. A lot of the trailers that...
view full answer... - Recommended Electric Power A-Frame Jack for a 28-Foot Jayco Travel TrailerYes. A 3,000 pound electric jack will work just fine. Based on your trailer weighing 7,500 pounds loaded will equate to your tongue weight between 750-1125 pounds. Although you can choose a 2,500 pound (see link attached) electric jack, I would highly recommend the Stromberg Carlson # JET-3555 (white) or # JET-3755 (black) as they are rated at 3,500 pounds. I think you will really like the price point! I have also included an FAQ for you too.
view full answer... - Gauge of Wire Used With Stromberg Carlson Electric A-Frame JackYou can use 10 Gauge Primary Wire # 10-1-1 to ground to your trailer chassis. The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555 and # JET-3755 uses a 10-gauge power wire as well so if you need extra wire for the jack to hook up to your battery you can use 10 Gauge Primary Wire # 10-1-1 and connect it to the positive terminal with Ring Terminal # DW05705-1.
view full answer... - Will the Stromberg Carlson Electric Jack Replace a Jack that has a Triangle Mount Flange Yes, the Stromberg Carlson Electric Jack, # JET-3555, will fit on your trailer's A-frame jack mounting hole. A-Frame jacks are all the same size and have the same bolt-pattern. The manufacturers did this so they could simplify the manufacturing process for both bolt-on and weld-on A-frame jacks. The mounting bolt holes on the Stromberg Carlson jack measure 3 inches from center to center.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Electric Tongue Jack That Lights Up But Won’t Extend or RetractYour power issue could be due to one or more of a number of potential causes. These could include loose/corroded battery cables, batteries that need a good long charge with an AC-powered charger like # CTEK56353 to top them off, batteries that can no longer take a full charge due to age or a bad ground at the jack mounting plate. Very often the cause for this kind of issue is the ground between the jack mounting plate and the mating surface on the trailer. Water and dirt can find their...

- Troubleshooting Powered Trailer JackHow exactly did you install the jack? There's two ways to install a powered jack. The preferred method is to connect the power wire to the positive terminal of a trailer mounted battery. You'll want to make sure the connection at the battery isn't corroded. Check that the metal on the trailer tongue where the jack attaches isn't corroded. This can prevent a good ground connection. If you're already using a trailer mounted battery, make sure it's charged up. The other method is to connect...
view full answer... - Retracted Height of Stromberg Carlson Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack JET-3555Based on a review of our manufacturer specs the shortest retracted length among the electric a-frame jacks we offer comes from the 3500-lb-rated Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555. Since it can happen that a manufacturer may alter product dimensions slightly between production runs, I went to our warehouse and measured one of these jacks myself so that I could be absolutely certain of the retracted length dimension of the # JET-3555.

- Recommended Battery Box for Wiring Jack to A-Frame TrailerThe best battery box to mount a 12 volt battery to an A-frame is the TorkLift PowerArmor Solar Single Locking Battery Box # TLA7720RS because it allows you to mount, protect and easily use a 12 volt battery to power your Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555. The PowerArmor comes with mounting brackets, is vented, has access holes for wiring, locks, and has a solar panel so you do not have to continually re-charge your battery with a charger. This is the best quality and easiest battery box...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting a Stromberg Carlson Trailer Jack # JET-3500 that Was Stuck with Blown FuseWhat is probably occurring on your jack is that it has been extended too far at some point and has become stuck. Trying to move it in either direction draws too much power as the motor tries to push the leg free. This cause the fuse to blow. What many electric jack manufacturers will do is to smash or otherwise distort the end of the screw that turns to move the leg up and down to prevent it from extending to far. If it does end up extending too far the threads will become permanently...
view full answer... - How Does the Stromberg-Carlson Electric Jack Wire for InstallationTypically these powered jacks would get their power from a trailer mounted battery that is maintained via the 7-Way on the truck. The truck would keep the battery topped off when towing down the road and the jack would pull the amperage it needs from the trailer battery. So yes, you would attach this Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 to the positive side of the battery for installation.
view full answer... - Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3500 Recommendation for a 2013 Jayco CamperThe Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 that you referenced has a 3,500 lb lifting capacity. That would be more than enough capacity to lift the tongue weight of your 2013 Jayco Camper that weighs a total of 3,500 lbs. The tongue weight on your camper is probably around 350 lbs. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Does the Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3500 Have to Face ForwardYes, you can install the Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 that you referenced with the switch side facing any direction. Having the switches be facing backwards or to the side would allow more tail gate clearance.

Worked well all season. The jack is covered while in storage. No issues using it after its been in storage. I have a solar battery tender so theres plenty of power to get it out of storage.
