Trailer Jack Pipe Mount Upgrade From 3,000 lb Bulldog Swivel Jack

Updated 06/08/2020 | Published 06/02/2020

Question:

I’m looking to replace a bulldog side wide jack on my round baler. There is a 2 1/2 female socket welded to the frame that the old one slides into. Old one was rated at 3000# but threaded nut in jack stripped out after a few years. Thinking I need a heavier rated one. Retracted height to center of socket would be about 16 inches. Only need about 5-10 inches lift. Can you help me find one that would work without replacing socket on machine?

Thank you for the pictures and info!

Since you had a Bulldog winch I recommend sticking with that brand because they are reliable and you can be confident that the pipe mount will match up exactly. To upgrade from a 3K we have the 5K # BD178203 or 7K # BD198250 depending on how much extra capacity you'd like. They both have a 15" lift and they are backed by a limited 5-year warranty so either one will fit your needs just fine.
