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.
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.

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...

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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: Cole05/27/2015
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.

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.

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: Jc08/25/2017
Customer service is class A, quick delivery, and Installation was easy peazee. Took all of 15 minutes. Reused the bolts from the my old hand crank jack, had to crimp on a battery loop type connector , wire came striped an with a fuse connected. So, after a quick crimp I connected it to the positive lead and let it jack up an down. Now, I've read that the jack is slow, well so am I. I'm a 66 years young female, in no rush, and it's way better that me doing the hand crank dance.

Originally purchased a different model, E-trailer emailed me to let me know that the model I ordered was backordered for over a month. I contacted E-trailer by phone and was help by Troy H. Troy help me find a replacement model that would fit my needs and was in stock for immediate shipping. My shipment arrived 3 days after ordering, I replaced it that evening and it works great. Troy was a great help and E-trailer has shown they are a customer service driven company, THANKS!

- 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....

- Where Should the Power Wire Attach on Stromberg Carlson 3.5K Electric Trailer Jack JET-3555The power wire for Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 24" Lift - 3,500 lbs - White Item # JET-3555 should be connected directly to the positive terminal on a trailer mounted battery. I do not recommend wiring it to the junction box because the 12 volt circuit that could be in that box is the 12 volt coming from the tow vehicle which means that multiple items could already be using it. To avoid any issues I do recommend attaching the power wire directly to a battery.

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... - Total Height of the Stromberg Carlson Trailer Jack JET-3500 When Extended Bracket to FootThe lifting height the # JET-3555 is capable of is 18 inches. When the jack is fully retracted it is 10-3/8 from jack foot to bottom of mounting bracket. So when it is fully extended it would be 28-3/8 inches from the jack foot to the bottom of the mounting bracket. Since you need 26 inches this would work well.
view full answer... - What Electric Trailer Jack Has Shorted Retracted HeightThe electric jack we have that has the lowest retracted height is the Stromberg Carlson part # JET-3555 which has that dimension at 8-1/2 inches. Everything else is going to be 9 inches or more.
view full answer... - Powered Jack Recommendation for a Diamon Cargo TrailerAs long as your Diamond cargo trailer has an A-frame and an A-frame jack mounting hole the Stromberg Carlson jack part # JET-3555 would fit and work well. This jack has a lifting capacity of 3,500 lbs which would be more than enough for your trailer. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.

The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 24" Lift - 3,500 lbs - White # JET-3555 has the strength to work on your 2017 Casita Spirit TT. It will mount to an A-Frame you just need to make sure you have the space to mount it. It is a bolt on design with mounting holes that fit 3 inch spacing. You will need to drill holes in the A-Frame however to match the holes in the jack. The outer tube is 2-3/16 inches wide. So if you have a gap that it...
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... - Electric Trailer Jack Will Not Work Even with a New BatteryThe first thing I would check is where the electric jack # JET-3555 is mounted because that is also where it grounds to the trailer. Make sure there is no corrosion between the jack and the surface it mounts to. With that cleaned up, the new battery, and the in line fuse still intact the jack should work. If it does not then it is likely a shorted switch. You would have to take the cover off of the jack to access the switch wiring or the wiring directly to the motor. That way you can apply...
view full answer... - Stromberg Carlson Trailer Jack # JET-3500 Recommendation To Help Install Spring BarsYes, this Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 that you referenced would be adequate to lift your trailer and truck enough to install the spring (sway) bars of your weight distribution system. Usually when we recommend a jack for a trailer we say that as long as the jack is rated to lift half of the weight of the trailer it will work well. However, since you will be lifting the rear of your truck also you would need a little extra capacity, so the 3,500 lb capacity of the # JET-3500...
view full answer... - Size of Socket on Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3500 for Manual OperationThe Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-3555 that you referenced has an override nut on the top of the jack that will take a 3/4 inch socket.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting a Jammed Electric Trailer JackIt is likely that the interior gears have stripped due to the jack over-extending. Since manually cranking the jack is unsuccessful, you will probably need to replace the jack, as the jack manufacturers will smash or otherwise distort the end of the screw that turns to move the leg up and down to prevent it from over-extending. If it does end up extending too far the threads will become permanently cross-threaded and it will never work right again.
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... - Troubleshooting Electric Camper Tongue Trailer Jack that Just Clicks Instead of Raising or LoweringBefore you replace the jack make sure the jack is grounded properly to the frame of your trailer, also check to make sure the main ground of your trailer connector is attached to a clean metal surface. Also check to make sure the 12 volt battery you are using has a good charge as it sounds like the jack isn't able to get enough amperage to operate when under a load. The jack sounds like it's making the same sound a car starter will make when the battery is either dead or the battery terminals...
view full answer... - 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... - Travel Speed of 3,500 lb Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer JackI reached out to the manufacturer, Stromberg Carlson, who told me their 3,500 lb Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3755 (Black) and # JET-3555 (White) has a travel speed of 10 inches over 55.5 seconds with no load. This is a relatively normal speed for a jack of this type and overall, these Stromberg Carlson jacks represent a great value. I have added links to video reviews of both trailer jacks for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Working Lippert Powered A-Frame Jack Manual Override that Feels StuckI called our tech contact at Lippert and he said that the manual override of the older style A-frame jacks that they carry do not like to operate if the power source of the jack is active. Basically if the jack is functioning fine with the switch it will not want to operate with the override. You can try disconnecting the power source to see if it will function.
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...

- 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 A-Frame Trailer Tongue Jack, # JET-3555 Blowing FusesYou should be able to manually crank the Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack, # JET-3555, up and down by removing the rubber plug on the side and inserting the manual handle or a properly sized socket wrench. Turn clockwise to extend the jack and counter-clockwise to retract it. I spoke with one of our installers about the fuses blowing. He stated that the power wire could be shorting to ground or there could be an internal component that is shorting out. Make sure all ground connections are...
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.
view full answer... - Are the Gears on the Stromberg Carlson A--Frame Jack Made of Metal or PlasticI contacted the manufacturer of the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack, # JET-3555, and they told me that the internal gear parts are made of metal and not of a plastic composite material.
view full answer... - Do All A-Frame Trailers have Same 3 Bolt Pattern for Trailer JacksYes, basically all A-frame trailers are going to have the same bolt pattern for installing a trailer jack. Typically the jacks have mounting holes that are somewhat slotted too to help with some variances. The bolt pattern you mentioned having on your trailer is compatible with the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3555 so this will work great for you.

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.
