Note: Do not use this jack to move your trailer if it's extended past this "max moving height" line.
Designed in the Outback for all-terrain use, this rugged jack is equipped to handle just about anything, from moving your boat trailer to accompanying you on off-roading adventures. You'll appreciate the smooth operation and adjustability for everyday use just as much as you'll enjoy the special features designed for extreme use. From jobsites to campsites, the Ark Xtreme trailer tongue jack will work for you.
Dual steel wheels with rubber tires provide increased surface area for smooth, steady travel. The rubber tires can cruise over rocks without breaking or getting flat spots, and the tread helps prevent sliding in wet conditions. The overall strength and durability of these wheels also keep them from stalling in sand or light mud.
Sealed bearings act as bushings to hold the wheels in line on the cross shaft. This is an improvement over traditional plastic jack wheels, which often have just a bolt going through them, providing very little stability and causing the wheels to wobble, lock up, and drag over time.
The heavy-duty, durable design of this jack lets you take your trailer off-road, over rough terrain, and through various climates. The sturdy steel, square body provides increased side-load capacity and superior strength, and limits play between the tubes. And the corrosion- and rust-resistant zinc finish offers a 600-hour salt spray rating to withstand wet or rainy conditions. The built-in grease zerk lets you lubricate the internal screw when necessary for continued smooth operation over time.
A sturdy magnet is built into the jack's easy-to-grip crank handle for secure attachment of the jack crank. The handle detaches easily to store away and prevent hang-ups while traveling, yet it's strong enough to stay put while you're cranking the jack up and down.
The removable handle might also deter would-be trailer thieves. After all, who wants to take a trailer if they can't get the jack to work?
This jack has a pipe-mount style design, which means you pull a non-spring-loaded pin to release the jack so it can swing up or down. To secure it in place, simply line up the holes in the pipe and the mount, and reinsert the pin.
The yoke latch at the bottom of the jack offers 5 positions to hold the wheels in place. This allows you to tailor the configuration of the stowed jack to suit your needs. So if you have anything mounted on your trailer tongue that the wheels might hit if they're positioned upright, you can lock them in place facing down instead. If you're off-roading and traveling through rough terrain where you might have issues with ground clearance, just lock them upright. This locking feature also keeps the wheels from swinging around while you drive, which will help to ensure that the bearings don't wear out prematurely.
Once you've arrived at your destination, setting up is a breeze thanks to the quick-release jack tube on the Ark Extreme jack. Just tug the spring-loaded handle to quickly drop the jack tube to your desired height. This handle allows you to set the jack in 1 of 4 positions. Once you have it as close to the ground as it will go, just rotate the crank handle on the front of the jack to fine-tune the height.
Having the ability to drop the jack tube in this manner means that you won't need a drop leg or space fillers like blocks or bricks. And far less cranking is needed to get the jack into position, which will you save you both time and effort.
When you're ready to pack up and hit the road again, hitch the trailer back up to your vehicle, retract the jack's inner tube using the crank, and reposition the jack back alongside your trailer tongue.
A trailer jack lifts your trailer high enough at the tongue to allow you to couple it with your vehicle. Usually, your tongue weight is about 10-15% of your gross trailer weight (GTW). For example, a 10,000-lb trailer has a tongue weight of 1,000 lbs to 1,500 lbs. To raise the tongue of a trailer this size, you'd need a jack that can handle a static load of no less than 1,500 lbs. And, yes, 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 capacity should operate more efficiently, allowing you to spend less time cranking and more time camping.
Excellent product… So much easier to use than the one I replaced.
too short.
Just one word for this product, "awesom e."
High quality item - is perfect for our trailer
Sturdy construction. Perfect fit on my extreme off-road trailer.
I am grateful for your service Melissa, George & the many others who helped make my order experience go smooth, get fast knowledgeable help & service!
Have a great day & future!
God Bless!
I always use the lawn mower to put the trailer back yard behind the shed. The couple times a year the lawn mower goes to the shop, this let me move it fairly easy through the gravel!
As advertised.
Heavy duty.
It would be nice if the supplied bolts were long enough to mount the plate that attaches to the trailer.
So, off to Ace Hardware in the morning.
As always, the Folks at E Trailer are the best.
Extraordinary customer service and knowledgeable.
Success. I wanted to replace a flimsy trailer jack on my off road trailer and was excited to see the reviews of this jack. I was looking for strength and toughness first and foremost and boy does this deliver! The pictures and videos don't do it justice. Until you see this in person and give it a heft - it's burly! I went for the tube mount version as I was hoping it would work with my existing tube. That wasn't the case as the pin and holes are larger than what I had. Fortunately, the mounting plate saved the day and I was able to position it further down my tongue and still have clearance to swing it up. Well done ARK for having the tube mount be reversible so there is a high/low position depending on what works for your setup. Great piece of kit!
I think the ARK trailer jack is great, bullet-proof product, but the documentation stinks. Don't try to put the wheels and bearing and washers together without some kind of sticky grease handy. Figuring out the installation schematics was an adventure. When using the drop handle, watch out for pinched fingers. In fact, wear gloves when operating.
Good overall. At full extension there’s a bend that occurs which is concerning, but aside from that it was a major upgrade from the jack that came with my smittybilt scout.
it was great I just wish the bolts that it comes with were a little longer. Hanging by a thread! (literally)
E-trailer made the it easy to decide on this product after watching their videos. Put this jack on a steel 12 foot Dimond C utility trailer. It’s heavy and a pain to move around and store. This jack makes all the difference in the world to my back. Quality made and functions real smooth. Well with the price!!
Nice and sturdy Jack. Makes moving the trailer a breeze
Great sturdy unit. Well made and will work as advertised. Bolts to attach it to the trailer frame were much to short, only 3" in length, so with those will only fit frames of 2" width allowing for side plates, etc.
Good unit. The only feedback is that it could have a little more full lift, givne it's built for off road. Not a huge knock, as it's advertised as the 18" in the description, but that can be tight when unloading the offroad camper back into my shop where the truck is on a slope entering the shop.
The unit performs very well for our camping trips, and when idle for winter, i store the tongue on a jack in the shop, as there is no reason to load this for 5 months of idle trailer season.
This is probably one of the best trailer wheels you can purchase. We've pushed a trailer loaded with a side by side over gravel, through mud, snow and any conditions you could throw at it. It performed flawless and was a life saver.
If you need the best wheel on the market for your trailer, this is it. It will not disappoint.
The only draw back is, I wish the wheel did not pull off the mount. We hook and unhook the trailer about 10 times a day, if you are in a hurry to flip the wheel up it can fall on your toes. Just be careful if you are in a rush.
Love the fact that the wheel locks with the pin and you can remove the handle to keep someone from rolling your loaded trailer forward if you put the wheel side ways and all the way down.
Great purchase, Heavy duty, and everything that I expected.
Quick shipping and great customer service from Etrailer.
We used this jack on our off-road trailer adventure. I could not asked for anything more. I have used other jacks, and they were not up to the challenge. So far, this one is the strongest. Worth every penny.
