Dimensions Of Crank Handle On Trailer Valet 5X

Updated 07/26/2016 | Published 07/25/2016

Question:

I would like to install a trailer valet 5x on my 2009 palomino yearling camper, but I will need to install itclose to to the camper because of the placement of the gas cylinder picture attached. I have enough space on the frame for the mounting plate but am concerned that the top wind jack crank handle will not have room to rotate 360 degrees without hitting the camper. The camper also slants out so the higher the handle , the less room to rotate it. What would be the height above the frame of the top wind crank handle, and what is the length of the handle?

I went to our warehouse and took some measurements of the Trailer Valet 5X, part # STC-V211 for you.

I have attached a photo of the # STC-V211 with the dimensions noted. From the top mounting bolt on the mounting bracket to the top of the handle it measures 9-1/2 inches. From the top of the mounting bracket to the top of the handle it measures 8-1/2 inches. From the center of the crank handle where it attaches to the top of the jack to the outside edge of the crank handle, it measures 8 inches. You can check to see if this allows you enough clearance form the hull of your boat and work for you.
