Troubleshooting Rear Wheel Clearance Issue with Brophy Cable Camper Jacks
Published 03/19/2019 >
Question:
I just purchased the #CJ74 jacks. The issue is that the tripod legs stick too far inward so the rear tires won’t clear to move the truck out from under. The angle piece fits great and finding a balance point was easy. Just when looking down the truck rear wheels will run over the tripod leg. Please advise . It looks like I will need to return these if there isn’t a way to use these as intended. Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
You should be able to change the orientation of the Brophy Cable Camper Jacks # CJ74 so that the legs pointing towards the cab of your pickup and the other legs will sit under your pickup bed a little to help stabilize your camper.
I have attached a picture to show what I am talking about. If you have the legs that point towards your tailgate clearing the tires then odds are you need to swap what sides they are on.
If you did already try this let me know and I can help you further.
