Trailer Jack Recommendation for A-Frame 2014 Arising 6x12 Enclosed Trailer

Published 12/28/2017

Question:

Hi, I have a 2014 Arising 6x12 enclosed trailer I use for my bike. The jack failed and I am looking at your Round A-Frame Trailer Jack - Sidewind - 15-5/8" Travel - 5,000 lbs # TJA-5000S-B. What would be the more powerful jack the side or the top? The trailer came with a top and it did not last long! and it was hard to use. will the sidehandle work better and be easier to raise and lower? Trailer2300lbe Harley=900lbs. How can I be sure this is driller for the A-frame on my trailer? I understand the 5000 lb weight is more than I need?

The etrailer.com jack part # TJA-5000S-B has a 5,000 lb capacity. I prefer the sidewind styles of jacks as I found them to be easier to crank than the top wind jacks. So, for your application the # TJA-5000S-B would easily be a great fit.

Since the capacity is much more than you'd need the crank would be incredibly easy to operate.

I attached a review video for this jack for you to check out as well.
