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.

Easy installation, reasonable price, works great! Much to my surprise, our trailer had a 2.25" top hole and a 2" bottom hole. This jack fit fine. The lights are helpful.



by:

I recieved the jack in a timely fashion and the box was destroyed (packing wasn't good) and was a bit worried but it didn't have a scratch on it and was very easy to install. Bolted right up!I really am happy with it and I would recommend it and etrailer!!



by:

The three items we ordered arrived on time. The electric jack was easy to install, 3 bolts and 1 wire. Took less then an hour. It makes hitching and unhitching our Keystone Hideout much easier.
Customer service was very helpful when we called to add a third item to our order.
No Hassle!



by:

Easy to install. I also replaced bolts with grade 8 bolts.
Ultra fab is a good product.



by:

Great work! Had a customer with a tight time line that Alex made certain of a timely delivery.



by:

Nice jack . Fit up on travel trailer was good did have to take 3/16 off the back of round mounting plate so it would not hit the battery box I did check with Ultra-fab and they got back to me the same day ,wanted to make sure this would not effect warranty . well built and quality was very good . So much better then my old jack .



by:

Easy install in 5 minutes, works great, excellent customer service, fast service and shipping. No more hand cranking for me.

Works great, fast and easy, my friend bought one from you after he saw mine



by:

Lift came super quick from etrailer. Very easy to install since replacing older model of the same lift. Ultra-Fab should include wire and fuse needed for the positive wire -had to reuse old fuse!



by:

Easy ordering, good tech support. Fast shipping. 30 minute install. Works great. Would recommend this item.

Charles

Working very good. Have only used it about 6 times so far. Great product.



by:

The fit was flawless and it handles my Flagstaff Mac with ease. It is a pop-up and not a huge load, but it saves a 70 yr. old a lot of cranking. Install was a breeze. Love it when items are as described. 6 day delivery over a holiday long week-end. Thanks for the great service.



by:

Well I guess its been a year since purchasing the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack as per the email I received from etrailer. I have been very happy with the purchase, this is so much better than cranking a handle!! Installation was very easy too. I liked this one since it has a zerk fitting for lubing the jack where others didn't seem to have that. All in all, I would purchase this jack again and through etrailer.com too.



by:

Excellent figment and easy installation!



by:

etrailer had the best price. Shipped to me in a few days. Took about 1 hour to convert from the 4th bad liepert smart jack. Works fast and easy. As I read on other reviews it is "wobbly" side to side compared to the old jack but rating are equal.
Put on my enclosed ATC car trailer. Have not yet loaded the car - I think that should only be done when "hooked up". Check with me in a few months after I have used it a bunch.

doing fine



by:

The Ultra-Fab power jack is great so far. This was a direct replacement for the stock original jack. Easy to install. This one has a fuse in-line as the original jack did not. I like that feature.

AOK



by:

Unit was out of stock but I was willing to wait. Well it was delivered a lot sooner than I thought and was kept updated about delivery date.(no guessing). The jack installed easily and works as expected. I am very satisfied with the service and the product. Thank you etrailer!

still going strong!

Used the electric jack this past weekend. Really like it, glad we got it. Very easy to install. Will recommend this product to anyone wanting a easier way to hook up your TT.

David C.

Bought this one year ago and it died already. It is not one that I would recommend. We had to hand crank on several occasions. We bought something different and threw this one away. As for Etrailer, great company.



by:

Worked as advertised. Easy installatio n.



by:

easy to install and one wire to connect. works great so far on my Pace American V-nose enclosed trailer with a couple snowmobiles on board

Russ

Very good, recently sold this trailer



by:

The product was easy to install. I put the trailer on my truck hitch before I started. No need for impact tool to loosen the bolts on the manual jack. Your jack fit fine, even cleared the propane bottle cover, although I have to sqeeze a little to get to the light switch. My trailer is a 30' Keystone Hornet with slideout. Your jack sounded like it was working hard, but it kept raising. It's the 3500 lb model, and I didn't measure the tongue weight before I started. However, it was right at freezing outside, and my battery isn't new, but all went well. Plenty of travel, and I like the removeable foot. All in all, I'm a Happy Camper.



by:

My husband is very happy with this electric lift. It certainly saves his shoulder!

Johnette

6/19/2019

Works like a charm.



by:

Great product, was easy to install and wire up. Very durable, grease tip location on the tube very convenient. Cons ( would like to see a foot extension for the tube and a more durable cover for the grease tip, other than that its a thumps up for this product.



by:

Installs easily, works great. Be careful to shut off the up/down switch as soon as the jack reaches the end of its travel, otherwise you will blow a fuse.

Dick W.

7/26/2020

Wonderful. Easy for the grandson to blow the fuse, but that is why the fuse is there.



by:

Great jack - haven't hooked up the electronics, but it's been great. The little rubber cover over the manual jack nut drive cracked, but I assume that is because I keep using it repeatedly (more than it was designed for). I wish it had a zerk fitting or two on the jack tube, just to keep it from seizing up in the future.



by:

Easy installation.everthing works as should totally happy with purchase.makes hooking up my trailer alot easier.

Scott M.

2/9/2016

Great, love not having to crank on a jack.



by:

Received as stated, very easy hook up, works great, hope the longevity is as good, did not need the fuse connection as camper already has 30AMP FUSE.

Lawrence

Works really good, One problem if you lower all the way a fuse will blow, I can live with that.

  • 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...

  • Recommended Replacement A-Frame Jack For A 2014 Jayco Jay Feather Ultra Lite Travel Trailer
    Since your 2014 Jayco Jay Feather Ultra Lite Travel Trailer should weigh around 3,500-4,500lbs I recommend the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack - 18" Lift - 3,500lbs # UF38-944017. This jack extends 6" in 25.3 seconds at 1,000lbs of tongue weight, to give you a bit of a speed reference. At max weight your trailer would at most have 450lbs of tongue weight. It has an easy bolt-on or weld-on installation for A-frame trailers, hardware not included, with the distance between the mounting...

  • Installation of Ultra-Fab Electric Trailer Jack on 2017 Keystone Cougar X-tra Lite
    Yes. That is the correct wiring for the Ultra-Fab # UF38-944017 if you've got an on-board battery on your coach. If you've got no battery, you can wire this into a junction box by connecting the wire to the inline fuse and then connecting that to the 12v/auxiliary power post; you'll then want to make a connection to the frame of the trailer with the ground (black) wire for the best results. I've linked a review video where Randy does an installation of this jack that you can refer to,...

  • Lightest Available Electric Jack with 18 Inch Lift and 3000 lb Capacity
    The Ultra-Fab # UF38-944017 meets all the criteria you mentioned. It has a 3500 lb capacity, is black in color, has an 18 inch lift and has a shipping weight of 21.07 lbs. When the weight of the packaging is subtracted, the jack weighs about 18 lbs. Although it's a few pounds heavier and costs a bit more, a 4000 lb capacity model is available as part # UF38-944016. The extra capacity would mean that your jack won't need to work as hard, which would extend the life of the jack. The Lippert...

  • Recommended Electric A-Frame Jack With Extended Footplate For Camper
    The Replacement Extendable Jack Foot, part # UF38-751101 will not fit the # UF38-944017 jack you have on your camper because the tubing is not the correct size. My contact at Ultra-Fab said they do not have an extendable foot for your jack. I do have a solution for you. I recommend changing out the jack for the # UF38-944016. This jack has a 4,000-lb capacity and comes with an extendable foot that adds an additional 5-1/2 inches of height.

  • Economy Electric A-Frame Jack For Forest River Salem Travel Trailer
    The best option for an economy electric A-frame jack for your 2020 Forest River Salem FSX travel trailer is one from Ultra-Fab: - Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017 The Ultra-Fab # UF38-944017 is priced extremely well and is relatively speedy, lifting six inches in 25 seconds with 1,000 lbs of tongue weight (it has a 3,500 lb capacity), which may not seem swift, but really is. Consider that your Forest River will certainly have less tongue weight than that, and it will be even...

  • Could Hopkins 7-Way Cigarette Lighter Adapter be Used to Power Ultra Fab A-Frame Power Jack
    Yes, you could use the Hopkins Cigarette adapter part # HM47675 when powering the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944017 as long as you were able to run the wires of the jack to a cigarette lighter type adapter. It would then just plug into the Hopkins and be ready to use.

  • Powered A-Frame Trailer Jack To Replace Manual Model on a 2021 Springdale 1740RK Travel Trailer
    Actually, the Ultra-Fab # UF38-944017 powered A-frame trailer jack is exactly what I'd recommend, for a few reasons: • The jack has a 5 year warranty, while a 1 year warranty is what you'll usually see. • The jack has a zerk fitting that makes lubricating the main screw very easy. • Rather than a specific emergency crank handle, the # UF38-944017 uses a 9/16 inch socket that can be purchased anywhere if it gets misplaced.

  • Could Ultra Fab Jack part # UF38-944017 be Used on 3,600 lb Trailer
    When picking out a trailer jack the capacity the jack has is for the tongue weight of the trailer. So the Ultra Fab jack part # UF38-944017 that you referenced could lift a vertical weight of 3,500 lb which would be way more than you'd need for a 3,600 lb trailer that would have a tongue weight of around 360 lbs. Having more lifting capacity just means that the jack won't strain when operating.

I recommend double checking that you have the switch on the off position, and if you do you will need to remove the toggle switch on the back to check for any loose wires or corrosion causing it to not turn off.

Connect one battery's positive post to the negative post of the other; then use the other remaining posts for connection to your jack.

  • A-Frame Jack for Camper With Low Height
    The dimensions that are important for an A-frame jack are the retracted height and extended height, which tells you what the travel is. It's pretty simple, but the different terms can be confusing. Travel is just the extended height minus the retracted height, and these heights are measured from the bottom of the mounting point to the bottom of the foot. For example, for your low 17 inch measurement from the top of the A-frame to the ground I recommend the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack...

The Trailer Valet, # TV94FR has an outer tube diameter of 2-1/4".
