Most Popular Bulldog for 2003 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Replaced stock Air Stream power jack which started making grinding noises. New 4,000 pound jack easy install and works fine. Using it to lift 25ft trailer and 2500hd Silverado to attach anti-sway bars. Had to mount it sideways due to propane tank cover, but it works great. Had one of these on a larger trailer that a hurricane destroyed. Nice unit and easy install.

Overall the product does exactly what it's intended for and works well. I however assumed that this would be a simple R&R for my camper and did very little installation research other that the video provided on etrailer' s website Sadly it did not fit. Not at all. I didn't take into account that have a double framed hitch toyhauler. The baseplate on the factory leg was a TRIANGLE.....this unit was ROUND. Also the primary shaft was thicker than stock and would not drop down into place I know modifying is frowned upon, but I found that ALL powered hitch legs I found have round mounting plates and it's not mentioned the leg tube is thicker than OEM? Since NOT having a power lift wasn't an option for this camper application...too heavy in the front when ATVS loaded to lift for setting the equalizer hitch tension bars, I proceeded to modify by cutting the rear rounded mounting base ... square. Took off about 1/2 inch. Then I took my metal Dremel sanding bit and increased the hitch leg hole diameter slightly. Took about 1 hr. Dropped it in. Wired it. Tested it. All good. If you can't post this I understand, but take note that some of your website descriptions may need to be enhanced. Thanks!

This was a replacement jack for a flat bed trailer. Installed it and it was just like the old one. Very happy with the jack, I recommend it highly.

Heavy duty, well-built jack. I decided to upgrade my trailer jack for poor performance and after searching the net I came across a video from etrailer describing the features of the Bulldog Square Jack # BD182804. It has every feature you need and some. With the upgrade, I must mention there was welding involved. I first confirmed there was structural support where the jack was to be mounted. I disassembled the jack per the video, located and welded the housing in place, reassembled the jack and lubed with the same grease I use for my trailer axles. It was that easy.

Delivery was on time, but the box it arrived in didn’t fair we’ll and parts were hanging out of the box! But everything was accounted for and the parts were well wrapped. Installation was very easy. The only issue was the locking pins mount plate is tack welded to the primary leg that the motor moves up and down. Those mounting plates had to be removed to install the lead and follow jacks. A grinder made short work of that. I didn’t put the mounting plates back on, instead I used my spring loaded pins that were on the old legs, they were still in good working condition. Also I didn’t use the adjustable cross over rod that came in the package . I opted to use the one that was on my old jacks, it was constructed of heaven gauge tubing and didn’t have a much (slop) movement in it. Also did not use the plastic housing gear box, I purchased a aluminum house gear box from e-trailer a few months back and used that one keeping the plastic for a spare. Very satisfied.

The leg pin came out because of the design, it is not a strong locking mechanism to not pull it all the way out. (My wife pulled it all the way out) Afyer furthet inspection, in addition to poor locking mechanism, the size of the pin is not adequate for the specified weight of the jack.
