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.

This was a great replacement for our 4 year old Keystone Springdale trailer jack that bit the dust. Installation was easy and is much faster and quieter than our RAM jack that came with the trailer. I did sand down the paint on the contact points to make sure of a good ground then painted over what was exposed. I liked it so much I'll be looking at getting one for my large utility trailer.
by: Grant 05/16/2024
It arrived quickly and I installed it the same day. Installation was simple and straight forward. It works great. I highly recommend. I installed this jack on a Lance 1575 travel trailer. So glad I finally did this!
by: Mark 01/01/2024
Shipping was exceptionally fast, the jack works great, although I can for see the rubber on the toggle switches will probably either wear quickly or possibly the weather/sun will deteriorate sooner than later.
by: Steve10/11/2023
So far not satisfied with this jack. It was easy enough to install BUT the up down switch is reversed so up is down and down is up. The motor will make 1 lift and shut off for 10 sec. or so. defantley not worth this kind of money

It does sound like this jack may need replacing. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you to assist.

we ordered the jack .It shipped quickly. easy installation no problems works great.
by: Randall 04/30/2024
Works excellent! Highly recommended!
by: Jeff 02/24/2024
Great product, should include wiring in structions.
by: Keith 09/16/2023
The Strindberg jack works like a charm. I especially like that it automatically shuts off before it runs out of jack room on the shaft, both up or down. Really great product.
by: 50Gage03/01/2024
The jack is great. Works perfectly.
Not too happy with whatever delivery service was used. Left this leaning against my mailbox at the edge of the street…
But it came quickly and wasn’t stolen.
by: David03/21/2023
Nice unit, dropped right in. Goes up and down. Haven’t used it yet under load, but sure makes it easier to connect and disconnect the trailer.
by: Tony 06/22/2023
Jack installation was quick and easy. I have bought a lot of trailer equipment from Etrailer and they have been very good company to deal with.
by: Bradford05/20/2023
This jack did not work right out of the box. It would retract but would not extend. Not only that, but when I tried to use the manual jack handle the unit would not work either. I had to use a bottle jack to get the trailer off my truck. etrailer was extremely helpful and helped me choose a different unit. They promptly sent to me the return shipping label for this defective unit.
by: Marvin 04/10/2024
Great jack for the money!
by: Randall 11/28/2021
Thank you etrailer people for your fine service. I can not really rate this jack until I use it for at least a few months. But I can say that this electric jack works great just out of the box and it came with all the proper hardware for a good installation.

Well a year later and all is well. We treat our jacks well and completely cover them in a plastic bag.The switches can be operated with the bag on.
by: Gary 12/02/2023
Very easy to install. Much more sturdier then the previous one.
by: Mark 12/29/2023
Installed easily with the parts provided. Works smoothly and quietly.
by: Philip03/13/2023
The new SC jack shipped quickly. Easy to install on my 20 ft. power tilt car carrier because I was only replacing a cheap electric jack from [online vendor] that had just failed rather than a new install.
I did have to turn the star washers over because the pointy side has to scratch through the paint to make a good ground contact but everything else was easy-peasy. You can tell that this new jack is a much more quality product. Works great/ much quieter than the old power jack. Thanks etrailer!!
by: Steven06/21/2023
The jack is in a slow failure mode. There seems to be some resistance in the jack as it keeps getting slower and slower at one year old. I’m waiting for the day it completely stops working. Voltage and ground are normal.

I have gotten in contact with the manufacturer. We are needing some more information in order to assist you better. Do you have a 30 Amp Fuse attached correctly? Make sure it is not loose or anything. Also please check to make sure that you have at least 12 volts coming to the jack. If it is less then 6, you will need to recharge the battery or change it. Also please look at all the wires inside the head of the jack to make sure nothing has come loose. One thing it could be, is if the jack was not hooked up as the instructions state, then it could be an issue with something in the RV. This is not a normal thing to happen with a jack that is one year old.
by: Allen05/12/2023
I just installed the jack and haven't had chance to use it yet
I will know more next week when i return from camping to let you know how it performs
As far as delivery I am well satisfied with the amount of time in which I received it
Thank You

This 2nd elec Jack I’ve purchased & very happy with them
by: Michael02/27/2023
Sent an open package we should have refused!! It turned out to be defective. Took my time to install for nothing!!! Thank God Stromberg is sending a replacement. Leaves a bad tast to ever order from etrailer again. They dumped a unit on us that should have been tested first!
by: Mike02/26/2023
etrailer helped me with no questions asked when a product came damaged by UPS. Got me a replacement before I could even box up the broken one to ship back.
by: Brian 06/02/2023
Came fast and installed it, it works up and down so got to see how long it last. Was easy to install and hooke would recommend if it for better than a hand crank
by: Harold05/16/2023
Box was in bad shape jack was up side down in box up looks ok you need to look at your packing
by: John 12/17/2022
Was ready to move our trailer to winter storage and found out that the electric jack was frozen up. Would not even hand crank. Needed a new jack fast. New trailer jack from eTrailer came in only two days in spite of snow storm. Easy to install so we are back in business.

- Recommended Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack for 2003 Fourwinds Classic 31BH4 Travel TrailerAny item that has to lift or pull weight - whether 5th wheel landing gear, a travel trailer electric tongue jack or a winch - will typically work better and last longer if it is not used at or near its absolute maximum capacity. Think of the extra capacity as safety margin. For a travel trailer such as your 2003 Fourwinds Classic Series 31BH4 (dry weight of 7358-lbs) the rating I suggest for an electric A-frame jack is 3500-4500 lbs. I think the best value for an A-frame tongue jack is...

- Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack for 1998 Sundowner Horse TrailerSundowner made both bumper-pull A-frame trailers and gooseneck trailers in 1998 but it sounds like you have a bumper-pull A-frame type and need an electric tongue jack. We like to suggest using an electric tongue jack with more weight capacity than you will actually need, since this this tends to improve both reliability and the jack's working lifespan. One of the best options is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR. Unlike most jacks, this one has stops that prevent over extending or retracting...

I wish we had the components you'd need to fix your Bulldog part # BD500200 that you referenced but Bulldog basically only offers replacement switches for this jack. You are going to need a new jack. I think the best value for an A-frame tongue jack is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR which is rated for 4500 pounds of tongue weight. This is 1000 pounds more than other models, and even though you may not need this much capacity, you will...

This is a 3,500 lb axle like you want but you need to determine which is the correct length axle for your trailer first. I've attached a photo showing where to measure your axle for the correct length. I've also included a link to our axle product listings. Once you know your measurements, you can use the filters on the left side of the page to choose the correct axle. Or, if you'd like, you can send me...

- Will Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # UF38-944037 Work on 20-ft Triple-Axle TrailerThe Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # UF38-944037 that you referenced is intended for bolt-on or weld-on mounting on A-frame trailers that have a mounting plate with 2- or 2-1/4-inch hole spacing. This powered jack has a 3500-lb lift capacity. You will want to know the weight rating of the trailer so you can be sure this jack will have enough capacity. For example, if your trailer carries heavy equipment, like a bull dozer for example, or a large power boat then this jack may be...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting A Stromberg Carlson Jack That Will Retract But Not ExtendI recommend first ensuring that your ground is good as the ground is typically the number one issue when it comes to wiring issues. From there the next thing to check would be the switch, as this part is usually the first to go out. We don't currently have a replacement switch for the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # SC63VR so if this was the cause (which I'm definitely leaning towards) then you would have to reach out to the manufacturer or completely replace the jack itself.
view full answer... - Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack Continues to Drop After LoweringIt does indeed sound like the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack part # SC63VR was damaged using the manual override feature without first engaging the switch. This would not be covered under warranty unfortunately so you will need to replace the jack. I recommend the Phoenix Electric Trailer Jack part # UF38-944040 which will be a nice upgrade. This jack offers some of the fastest speeds on the market and it has one of the best warranties available of ten years. I did a review video...
view full answer... - A-Frame Electric Power Jack Recommendation For TrailerWe've got several electric A-Frame jacks that would work perfectly for you. If your trailer weighs just shy of 10,000 lbs, the trailer's tongue weight is likely somewhere in the neighborhood of 1000-1500 lbs, so you'll want a jack with a capacity greater than that. The greater the capacity of the jack, the less hard it'll have to work and therefore the longer it will last. Because of this, I'd recommend going with the highest capacity jack your budget will allow. My go-to recommendation...
view full answer... - Replacement Electric A-Frame Jack with Protection from Over-ExtensionWe do offer better jacks that have built-in protection from over-extension. I think the best value for an A-frame tongue jack is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR which is rated for 4500 pounds of tongue weight. This is 1000 pounds more than other models, and even though you may not need this much capacity, you will find that the jack motor runs quick and effortlessly. This will add years to its life. This jack also has a unique clutch that prevents damage from overextending or retracting...
view full answer... - Recommended Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack for 2017 Jayco Jay Flight SLX Travel TrailerTrailer tongue jacks can be rated for well under the trailer's actual weight since they never have to lift the entire trailer, only the weight of the tongue area at the coupler end. Usually in a properly-loaded trailer this will be between 12% and 15% of the trailer's total gross weight (GVWR). Since your 2017 Jayco Jay Flight SLX A-frame travel trailer has an unloaded tongue weight (TW) of 710-lbs we can estimate that when fully loaded the TW will be more like 1000-lbs. I think the...

The length of the Basecamp 20 is 20' from the ball to the back of the trailer. When selecting a cover you are not going to be covering the trailer tongue which will shorten the length of cover. You will measure from the back of the trailer to the front of the trailer excluding the tongue. I have included a picture demonstrating this. Since you mentioned an electric powered...

- Can an Ultra-Fab Electric Trailer Jack that has Been Over Extended be RepairedThe way that the electric trailer jack # UF38-944017 works is using an ACME screw and a nut. The nut is fixed and the screw goes up and down in the nut. At the end of the screw the metal is twisted, smashed, or otherwise purposely cross threaded to prevent the screw from just coming out and the load dropping. If you try to raise a jack with this type of design too far it damages that nut and the screw. Those parts cannot be replaced. You will need to replace the whole jack. This is not...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting a Husky Brute HT87247 Trailer Jack that Doesnt Go Up or DownA common problem with a trailer jack like your Husky Brute that will not go up or down is that the battery is dead or bad or the battery connection is bad. I would start by checking the battery and the connections, including the ground. If it's not the battery it could be the switch. You can test this by removing the switch and applying power directly to the switch's wiring. If the jack starts working then the switch is bad. A replacement switch will have to be sourced at an electronics...

If the motor burned out, it is time for a new jack. Our most popular electric jack is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR which is rated for 4500 pounds of lifting power.

If you use a circuit tester at the power wire just before it enters the jack that should give you a good idea of whether or not you have a dead battery or there is a short on the power wire. The ground is not so easy to test so I just recommend removing it, sanding down the mounting surface, and attaching with...
view full answer... - Electric Jack Recommendation for an A-Frame Trailer that weighs 10,000 lbsWe don't have exactly what you are looking for, but it sounds like you would rather have a powered jack like the part # SC63VR. The only thing is this is a 4,500 lb jack, meaning that it can lift a tongue weight of 4,500 lbs which in most cases is way more than what a-frame trailers will have. Your 10,000 lb trailer would most likely have a tongue weight of 1,000-1,500 lbs. I think the best value for an A-frame tongue jack is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR which is rated for 4500 pounds...
view full answer... - Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack and Battery Box Recommendation for an Enclosed TrailerYou can get a jack and battery box from us, right here at etrailer! For a battery a 12 volt car battery will work fine. It doesn't have to be the fanciest battery (since they are getting so pricey these days) so long as it has the amperage rating for the draw of the jack you use. For a battery box you could use # 329-HM327BKS for group 27 batteries. The interior measures 13-3/16" long x 7-3/16" wide x 10-1/8" deep so the battery will need to fit those dimensions. It comes with mounting...
view full answer... - How To Bypass the Switch To Test the Motor On a Husky Brute Electric Trailer JackThe process that you are referring to for the (Discontinued) Husky Brute Electric Trailer Jack means that you will need to take the power wire that goes from the back of the switch to the motor (trace to confirm) and then attach that directly to a 12 volt power supply. If the jack works once this is done then you know the switch is bad and it can be replaced. However, if the jack still does not work even when direct power is applied to the motor and you have checked the ground then the...
view full answer... - Husky Brute Trailer Jack Moves Slowly or Not at AllThe Husky Brute jacks ground through the mounting hardware. If there is corrosion where the jack is mounted or the surface is painted it can create a weak ground. You could support the trailer with jack stands, loosen and remove the jack, then sand down the mounting location for good bare metal contact. It is also possible that the jack may need a little help. When jacks are new or have sat for a while they can kind of bind up. Using the manual override crank handle to run the jack up...
view full answer... - Solution for Damaged A-Frame Power Jack Inner LegI wish we could get you a replacement inner leg but that's not a replaceable part on this jack. It would be time to replace it. I think the best value for an A-frame tongue jack is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR which is rated for 4500 pounds of tongue weight. This is 1000 pounds more than other models, and even though you may not need this much capacity, you will find that the jack motor runs quick and effortlessly. This will add years to its life. This jack also has a unique clutch...
view full answer... - Should Sparking Powered Trailer Jack be ReplacedHonestly that sounds like a jack that needs to be replaced. If you are seeing a spark coming out of the bottom of it that would indicate it's not safe. Especially around propane tanks! My favorite powered jack to recommend is the Stromberg Carlson # SC63VR as it shuts off automatically before topping or bottoming out. Other jacks will allow you to go too far with the jack but in doing so you damage the threads of the screw. It has a lifting capacity of 4,500 lbs which would be more than...
