Question:

Hi, I am currently looking at replacing my trailer jack. I have a top winding 1 ¾” jack on a 2014 forest river Flagstaff classic RBST 12 pop up trailer weighing 1955 Lbs. I want to replace it with a side winding jack, all of them are 2” or 2 ¼” tubes, will I have to make mods to the existing hole this tube would go in? Also could you make some recommendations? Thanks

All of the sidewind jacks like the part # PSRV20000103 will have an outer diameter of 2 or 2-1/4 inches. This one happens to be 2-1/4 inches. You would have to open up the lower hole to match the correct size of the larger jack. A qualified fabricator in your area would have no problem doing this.

This jack would work great for you as it has more than enough capacity. For a foot plate you would need part # PS1400700340 or a wheel caster # PS1400750340.
