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.

Definitely has the power I need however I can't open my tailgate when my camper is hooked up. 5 stars for power.
by: Kyle 10/22/2022
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.

Great. Not as quick as I expected.
by: Havasulew10/24/2022
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.

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

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: Ron12/08/2022
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: Marilyn12/29/2022
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.

Works well, dependable.
by: Jerry09/06/2023
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.

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?
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
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: Bryan K.08/02/2018
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: Glen02/19/2023
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: Douglas 06/30/2023

- Recommended Plates for Installing Electric Jack Mount on A-Frame TrailerThanks for the photos. You will need to weld on a plate like the Bottom Support Plate for 2-1/4" OD A-Frame Jacks - 5,000 lbs # JSP-100. It sounds like you will need a couple of these plates to create a bracket instead of a reinforcement because it will need to be strong enough to support the tongue weight of the trailer. Then the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Black, Item # JET-5000 is a great option for your trailer.
view full answer... - Recommended Electric A-Frame Jack For 25 Foot Keystone Travel TrailerI recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000. This is a really nice 5 inch drop leg jack for your a-frame trailer. It has a 5,000 pound lifting capacity and 3 built in LED's to illuminate the area to the from and sides of the jack for nighttime visibility. I highly recommend this jack for your 25 foot Keystone Travel Trailer.

Normally I recommend checking your wiring leading up to your switches, the lights, and your motor. In this case, since you mentioned you can't move it manually, the issue is likely in the threads, gears, or motor. It really sounds like a mechanical issue. We do not carry any of those replacement parts,...

Powered trailer tongue jacks like the Bulldog # BD500188 and the Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000, as examples from those on the linked page, can draw substantial power. The specific power drawn by the jack depends on the particular jack and the actual load that is on it. The Stromberg Carlson # JET-5000 will pull about 30-amps...

view full answer... - Best Electric Trailer Jack for Use with a 2017 Keystone Bullet 243BHSYou will want to find a jack that can at least lift the weight of your fully loaded trailer. Since the Tongue Weight (TW) of a trailer should be between 10-15% of the weight of your trailer, we can do a little math to figure out what would be best. I found that your 2017 Keystone Bullet 243BHS has a dry weight of 4,685 lbs and can carry up to 1,815 lbs meaning that the most your trailer will weigh is 6,500 lbs. This will put your TW at 650 lbs - 975 lbs. I recommend going with a jack...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Jack that Stopped Working and is BeepingWe 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.
view full answer... - Can the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack Be Rotated to Face a Different DirectionIn order to position the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift # JET-5000 can be rotated so that the switches are on the side and not facing forward. You will want to just simply rotate the jack until it lines up with the next set of bolt holes. This will be a 120 degree rotation.
view full answer... - Acceptable Methods of Providing Power to Trailer Jack Mounted on Horse TrailerYou 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 exceeds the tongue weight of your fully loaded horse trailer. If the jack is working very hard to lift the trailer, the wire that carries the accessory circuit can overheat. To provide plenty of wiggle room, I would say that if the capacity of the jack exceeds...
view full answer... - When Replacing Electric Jacks My Brake Light Stays On And My Blinker Stopped Working It's possible, however It sounds like you may have a short somewhere in your wiring. I recommend inspecting your vehicle side & trailer side connectors for rust, debris, or corrosion. If your connectors are dirty, clean them out and see if the problem persists. If it does, continue troubleshooting by tracing your wiring back from the vehicle connector, and look for frays or damaged wire along the way. Finally, the last area to check is your grounds. Make sure your grounds are clean, secured...
view full answer... - Can Two 6 Volt Trailer Batteries Power the Stromberg Carlson Electric JackIf the 2 6-volt batteries were wired in parallel which would double their voltage to 12 volts you could use them to power the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 as it does require 12 volt batteries to run. I attached a picture that shows how batteries wired in parallel and in series are wired up.

view full answer... - Electric Jack Recommendation for Car Hauler Hauling 3,400 lb CarCranking jacks is one of the lead causes of crankiness so I can sympathize with you there! The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 that you referenced has a 5,000 lb lifting strength and would make easy work of your trailer. The bigger the better is the right mindset as having an overkill jack allows it to work faster and last longer since it won't be straining.
view full answer... - Electric Trailer Jack Recommendation for 7,400 lb TrailerThe weight rating for trailer jacks is the vertical lifting strength they have. The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000 is an excellent jack that has a vertical lifting strength of 5,000 lbs. Your trailer would most likely have a tongue weight of 740 to 1,000 lbs so this jack would make easy work of it. I always recommend going much larger on electric jacks to make the lift quick and easier. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Should Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack JET-5000 Have Circuit Breaker on Power WireYou can use either a fuse or an auto-reset circuit breaker on the power circuit for the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-5000. Since this unit draws 30-amps with a 1,700-lb load a 30-amp breaker like # PK54530 will allow all needed power to reach the jack. You'll use ring terminals # 44-5310A, 10-gauge duplex wire # 10-2-1 and butt connectors # 05732-2. The copper color post on the breaker goes to the battery.

This has a higher capacity than you need which makes it work faster and last longer. For a weight distribution system, we need to base the decision off of the total tongue weight, which is the loaded trailer tongue weight as well as any cargo behind the rear axle of your 2013 Ford F-150.

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.
