Level and lift a heavy trailer with two 12K hydraulic legs, each powered by its own 12V pump. Independent controls let you adjust either side separately, while manual overrides give you a backup if the trailer loses power.
Heavy gooseneck, cargo, livestock, and equipment trailers can put a lot of weight on the landing gear, and uneven ground can leave one side sitting higher than the other. This Bigfoot system gives you 24,000 lbs of combined lifting capacity with two 12K hydraulic legs, each providing 24" of lift.
Each jack has its own hydraulic power unit, so you can operate the two sides independently. Raise or lower either leg as needed to level the front of the trailer instead of moving both sides together. Each jack also uses a 10" x 10" pivoting foot for a broad contact point on the ground.
The wired control panel has separate extend and retract switches for the two jacks, letting you operate either side from one control point. Both pumps run from your trailer's 12V electrical system, and the kit includes the battery cable and 120-amp circuit breaker needed for the dual-pump setup.
If the trailer loses electrical power, you still have a way to operate the landing gear. Each pump has a 1/4" hex manual override, so you can operate either side without relying on the powered controls.
You supply the 12V battery and slightly less than 6 quarts of Dexron III ATF. The system calls for at least 4-gauge battery cable and a solid ground through the steel mounting structure or a separate frame ground. Either pump can also be relocated if your trailer layout calls for a different position; longer hydraulic hoses are required and sold separately.
The adjustable B-brackets are designed around trailer frame sections from about 3-5/8" to 5-1/2" wide. They can bolt through a vertical bulkhead frame section, or the jacks can mount directly to the frame when your trailer layout calls for it. Bolt-on does not mean every trailer already has matching holes, so compare the mounting area before installation and plan to drill where necessary.
Set the jacks so you have at least 8" to 10" of ground clearance at ride height. Mounting hardware is included, but thicker trailer frames may require longer bolts.

Hi everyone, Steve here with etrailer. Today we're taking a look at the Bigfoot hydraulic jack set. It's featuring dual pumps and this one has the manual override. It's rated at 24,000 pounds of lift capacity. These are heavy duty, they're gonna get the job done and then some. So they're very versatile.
The dual pump set up means you can adjust side to side on your trailer level lane, so it's gonna give you that capability. It's great for cargo, livestock construction, heavy equipment trailers, those kind of things, even bumper pool or gooseneck trailers as well. And again, you're gonna get the complete package. You're gonna have all the brackets you need, all the bolts, and any kind of extra electronics and stuff. You have both pumps inside the housing here.
That's what one of 'em looks like when I pulled the cover off. And you do also get the manual override tool. So you're gonna use a drill and then you can use this attachment that comes with it on either one. And right up here on the top is a little plug you pull out and then you can manually go up or down as needed with that, in the event you lose power. So you will need a 12 volt battery power source, not included obviously.
You should already have that on your trailer, most likely. You're also gonna need approximately three quarts for each set up. So six quartz total of ATF dextron three, again, not included. So make sure you pick some of that up as well for the installation. So like I said, you're gonna get all the hardware.
I can't spin these around just 'cause they're so heavy and beefy, but these brackets here, they're welded on. They go seven and a half inches long, side to side, and they're four inches tall on all four of those. And then you have these little right angle ones that match up to them. And these are that same four inches long and about two inches tall, that tall part, and one in three eights I believe on this smaller side there. And that's gonna be great, 'cause you don't have to weld this on. You get the included hardware bag that comes with it. And all you have to do is bolt it in place on your trailer where you need it, where you want it, and you're good to go. Now this whole housing assembly on both of these units, you can technically unbolt this from the jack if you want to move it to another location. Totally fine, just note that you'll probably have to purchase separately, longer hydraulic hoses to be able to reach wherever you're putting that. So just keep that in mind. You do, of course, get the main unit here. So you can go up or down, side to side, whichever one. And then they got the rubber plug here over the power where your keys will go in. It comes with two keys so you can lock this out so no one can tamper with your jack system and raise or lower it without you knowing about it. You know when you're parked, those kind of things. There's some crazy people out there. The foot plates, they measure 10 inches by 10 inches square. They do have the corners kind of chopped off, but if it was a perfect square, it's 10 inches by 10 inches. From the top of the jack to the ground, so at the bottom of the foot plate, when it's fully retracted like it is now, I got 34 inches. Now when it's extended, it's gonna be around 55 inches overall from top to bottom. And as you can see, these are powder coated, so they're gonna have nice corrosion resistance. They're gonna last you a long time. They're very, very durable. Bigfoot's been around for a while, great company.

Shipping something this heavy should be put on a pallet and strapped down so UPS can’t loose a box or roll it down a mountain. That’s what one of my jacks looked like when I finally received it two weeks later. And still haven’t received one of my jacks .
