Features to know about

Heavy Loads Moved with Ease: Dual Hydraulic Power Does the Lifting

This setup turns heavy lifting into a one-button job. The Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System w/ Double Acting Pump delivers up to 3,200 psi of extension pressure and 1,500 psi of retraction pressure, giving you smooth, controlled movement in both directions. Each jack handles a 10,000 lb lift capacity and 12,000 lb support capacity, for a combined 20,000 lb lift and 24,000 lb support. The system includes both jacks, the double-acting pump, selector valves, hoses, and fittings—everything needed for a complete install that’s ready to work.

Stable Setup Anywhere: Pivoting Foot Pads Keep You Level

Uneven ground doesn’t need to slow you down. Each jack uses a pivoting rectangular foot that stabilizes the trailer even when the surface isn’t perfectly flat. Instead of sinking or twisting under load, the foot pads adjust to the terrain to keep the jacks steady. This gives you confidence when raising or lowering on gravel, grass, or sloped concrete.

Built for Long-Term Use: Weld-On Square Tubes and Durable Finish

The jacks feature square tubes with an exterior-grade black finish that weld directly to your trailer frame. The welded design provides a solid, permanent connection that won’t rattle loose. The coating protects against corrosion and wear from dirt, road grime, and weather exposure, so the system stays looking sharp and working smoothly over the years.

Fast, Safe Operation: Selector Valves Control the Movement

Smooth operation matters when you’re dealing with heavy gear. The selector valves regulate the hydraulic flow to create even, controlled motion while lifting and lowering. With a maximum hydraulic flow rate of 2 GPM, the system moves quickly but stays stable through the full range—30-3/4" retracted and 50-3/4" extended. You get the power of hydraulics with precision and safety built in.

Ready for Real Work: Reliable Components and 3-Year Warranty

From the double-acting pump to the sturdy welded frame mounts, every component is designed for demanding use on multi-axle setups. Dexter backs it with a 3-year warranty, giving you solid peace of mind that this system can handle the day-in, day-out grind without hesitation.

Overall the jacks and the system work good but the only thing that I would suggest it to make a cover that will fit over the hydraulic pump and motor! There are other manufacturers that have that option with theirs so there is no reason that this set up don’t have it

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Trailer Jack

  • Dual Electric Jacks for 24,000 lb Gooseneck Trailer
    Hey Juan! Depending on the jacks you may be able to add a motor like # LC196308 but you have to make sure it is rated for the weight up front (you're probably around 6,000 lbs but could be more). For a complete replacement I recommend the Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set # UF17-943010. These have a combined weight capacity of 12,000 lbs and use dual motors. These can easily handle your trailer, and will also allow for side to side leveling since they can be adjusted individually....

  • What Kind of Oil Should Be Used w/ a Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System?
    Hey Teresa. I checked with Dexter and for their Dual Hydraulic Jack System w/ Double Acting Pump item # DX42CR they recommend using Dexron III ATF. Depending on what climate you are operating in you may need to use a synthetic hydraulic fluid rated for aircrafts. MIL-H-83283 is recommended for use in extreme cold environments. What kind of trailer do you have?

  • Can I Run Two Of The Dexter Self-Contained Hydraulic Jacks From The Same Remote?
    Hello Jeff, thanks for reaching out. It is possible to use two of the Dexter Self-Contained Hydraulic Jacks # DX72CR on the same trailer, but there is no way to have both jacks run off the same remote. You would have to have two remotes and use both at the same time. If you want a system that has two hydraulic jacks that work together we have the Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System w/ Double Acting Pump # DX42CR.

  • Can Two Self-Contained Hydraulic Jacks Be Used Together On Construction Trailer
    Hi Mike; you can install two of the Self-Contained Hydraulic Jack # e33VV on your construction trailer. However, they will run as two separate units with different controllers. If you want a system that has two hydraulic jacks that work together we have the Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System w/ Double Acting Pump # DX42CR.

  • Is the Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System Self Leveling?
    Hey Tony. The Dexter Dual Hydraulic Jack System w/ Double Acting Pump item # DX42CR does not have a self leveling function. It's either up or down. The pivoting foot pads on the bottom of the jacks are what this system relies on when you're using it on uneven terrain. The pressured system is going to work normally on uneven and level ground. What kind of trailer do you have? You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy...
