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.

  • Does the 20 Amp Circuit Breaker for Ultra-Fab Powered Trailer Jacks Reset Itself
    Once an overload condition has ceased then the circuit breaker should reset itself. It is mounted on the outside of jack # UF38-944017 but should not need any persuasion to reset. If the jack is not powering on it could be that an overload or short still exists or something else in the electrical system from the power source to the jack is not working properly. You will also need to check the in line fuse. If it is blown the jack will not operate. If all the wiring is done correctly and...

  • How to Determine Weight Capacity of Electric Trailer Tongue Jack for Camper
    You'll need to chose a jack whose capacity is greater than the fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight of the camper. Going with a powered jack whose capacity is much greater than the tongue weight of the camper is recommended because the jack won't need to work so hard and will therefore last longer. Also, if you're using a weight distribution system on the camper, sometimes you'll want to use the trailer jack to also pick up the rear of the vehicle to put slack into the system so...

  • Is Ultra-Fab 3502 Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack the Same as # UF38-944017
    Nothing, the Ultra-Fab trailer jack # UF38-944017 is the same as the Ultra-Fab 3502. They just call it the 3502. Otherwise it is the exact same jack, same components, capacity, lift, color, size, everything. The 38 is just part of the part number.

  • How to Grease the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017
    Base on the installation instructions, to grease the jackscrew on the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack, # UF38-944017, extend the jack until the grease fitting is aligned with the hole in the outer tube. You can apply enough grease with two pumps from a standard grease gun. To grease the gears, you will need to first remove the fuse from the fuse holder. Next, remove the gear cover via 4 phillips screws to expose the gears. Then, grease the gears using chassis lube and reinstall the cover....

  • Installing the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack # 38-944017
    The Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack - 18" Lift - 3,500 lbs # UF38-944017 can be wired for both the power and a ground to go to the battery, you would just need to add the jumper wire for the ground connection as it is designed to be grounded to the trailer through the mounting flange. The # UF38-944037 has a 7-way plug to power the unit so no other power is needed if you prefer.

  • Does Ultra-Fab Powered A-Frame Trailer Jack have a Manual Crank
    There isn't a hand crank for Ultra-Fab trailer jack # UF38-944017 but instead it uses a 9/16 inch deep well socket that you could use with a ratchet to manually crank the jack should you need to. I have included a link to a video review of this jack for you.

  • Connecting a Power Lead From an Electric A-Frame Jack to Trailer Accessory Battery
    If you are using an internally grounded electric jack like the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack, part # UF38-944017, you simply run the power lead to the accessory battery on the trailer and connect it to the positive terminal using something like a ring terminal, like part # DW05705-1. You will also want to make sure the negative post of the battery is grounded to the trailer frame so the circuit is complete. This type of jack will only require the power lead wire to be connected as it...

  • How to Wire 12V Electric Jack to Two 6V Batteries
    If you have a 12V power jack that you want to power with two 6-volt batteries you will need to wire the two batteries in series in order to increase their combined output voltage to 12V. Connect one battery's positive post to the negative post of the other; then use the other remaining posts for connection to your jack. You will want to make sure that your two batteries have the current capacity required by your jack.

  • What Does It Mean When Jack Leg Just Spins and Doesn't' Lift
    Hey Gary, that sounds like the nut inside the jack # UF38-944017 is broken and not it's just spinning without the nut forcing the threads to move the screw down to push the jack up. Unfortunately there isn't a fix for this and you'd have to replace the jack. Did you hear a loud pop at any point or any other unusual sounds?

  • Recommended Replacment for a FIC 3500 Electric Jack
    To replace your FIC 3500 electric jack, I recommend the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack item # UF38-944017. This jack extends 6" in 25.3 seconds with 1,000 lbs of tongue weight. It has an easy bolt-on or weld-on installation for A-frame trailers, with the distance between the mounting holes center to center being 3". The zerk fitting on the lower stem assembly allows access to grease the threaded rod which leads to a longer jack life and overall better performance. The dual side lights...

  • Recommended Heavier Duty Upgrade For FIC 3500 Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack
    Electric A-frame trailer jacks often have the same bolt pattern, yes. Just keep in mind that a higher-capacity jack doesn't necessarily mean more speed, it's all about the jack itself. For example, the 3,500 lb Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017 extends 6" in 25.3 seconds (with 1,000 lbs of tongue weight), while the 4,000 lb Bulldog Trailer Jack # BD500200 extends 6" in 28.5 seconds (with 1,000 lbs of tongue weight). That said, since you mentioned wanting a heavier-duty jack,...

For an electric A-frame trailer jack that has an outer tube of 2 inches and an inner tube of 1-3/4 inches you would need to go with a jack from Ultra-Fab: - Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017 - Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack with 7-Way Plug # UF38-944037 Both of these are 3,500 lb jacks that will work...

  • Replacement Jack for Lippert Electric Tongue Jack LG-181794
    For a Lippert jack model 181794 a replacement manual crank nut is not available. I checked with my contact at Lippert to confirm. You will need to replace your jack with a complete new one, I am sorry to say. To help you select a new one I have linked an article on jacks as well as our main page for such items. For an electric tongue jack with the same 3500-lb weight rating and the same 18-inch lift as yours I suggest the Ultra-Fab # UF38-944017.

  • Can a Caster Wheel be Used on Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Trailer Jack
    While you could put a wheel on an electric jack such as # UF38-944017 the problem is that the wheels are rated much lower than the jacks so the jack would be limited to the capacity of the wheel. What I recommend is to use a trailer dolly such as # RA20. We use these around here sometimes to move trailers around. The 1-7/8 inch ball ensures that any coupler size will fit (doesn't have to be exact because the trailer isn't being towed). Another option is a jack and trailer mover in one....

  • Replacement Tongue Jack For a 2001 Starcraft Pop-Up With a Shelby Tongue Jack
    While I cannot see exactly what jack you have on your 2001 Starcraft Pop-Up camper I do now a lot of the older pop-ups used a jack with a 2" diameter outer tube versus the more commonly found jacks today which have a 2-1/4" outer tube. If you have the 2" tube currently we have the Manual # DL22530 or an Electric # UF38-944017 option you could upgrade too. If you choose to go with the electric it is taller at 18" above the tongue so you would want to ensure this will clear any portion of...

  • Replacement for Powered Tongue Jack That Spins But Does Not Raise or Lower
    If your trailer's powered tongue jack's motor is operating but the jack does not raise or lower, then it is likely that the gearbox or main screw is damaged. There may be a repair kit available for your brand and model of jack; you can let me know the brand and part number and include a photo to let us check, if you like. You can also simply bolt on a new electric a-frame jack. You can see all of our electric a-frame trailer jacks on the linked page. It is best to choose a jack that has...

  • Troubleshooting Ultra-Fab 3500lb Trailer jack UF38-944017 Stopping When Underload
    I reached out to my contact at Ultra-Fab and there are a few things that could be causing the jack to stop when it is underload, and then working again after 30 seconds. The first thing is it is possible the motor is going bad and drawing more amps to raise and lower which is causing the circuit breaker to trip and reset. This is more often found on older jacks, and you would notice the jack is quite a bit louder when it is raising and lowering compared to when it was new. If this is the...

  • Replacement Shear Pin for Ultra-Fab Ultra 3502 Powered Tongue Jack
    Powered trailer jacks allow use of a manual crank for emergency purposes (like a power loss) and some can be used with a drill attachment and a cordless drill. But an impact wrench puts too much stress into the mechanism and this type of tool should not be used on a jack. We do offer a replacement shear pin # UF38-751025 that fit jack model Ultra 3502 for serial numbers up to 010150 (which were made before 2010). My tech contact at Ultra-Fab thinks the self re-setting circuit breaker...

  • Troubleshooting Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack UF38-944017 Not Lowering Unless Weight Is Added
    Based on the description you provided of the issue you are having with your Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017 it sounds like the gears inside are worn and require the extra pressure for them to be engaged. Unfortunately the gears are not available as replacement parts, so the most cost effective option would be to just keep placing your foot on the jack to lower it. The only other option would be replacing it with another # UF38-944017. I included a video of the # UF38-944017...
