Can You Replace the Threaded Rod in the RV Scissor Jacks

Question

Question:

Can the long 26inch threaded bolt which takes up or down the pads be replaced? How? Just bought a used RV and this stabilizer is bent and very difficult to take up or down. Its a Libra scissor jack 5,000# capacity. Thanks

There are no replacement parts for the trailer scissor jacks, if they are damaged such as the rod being bent then you will simply need to replace the jack for which we have the Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jack part # LC285325 or part # LC285326 for the pair. The mounting pattern is pretty standard so they should be an easy bolt-on swap for most applications.

Hello again Frank; tongue weight is typically 10-15% of your trailer weight. At 5,400 lbs you could go over the max 800 lb tongue weight of the #FA94-00-0800 but that probably isn't the case here. If you really want to be sure you could always…
