When replacing the housing on your Electric Jack w/ Footplate # EJ-3520-BBX with the Replacement Cover for etrailer and Ram Electric A-Frame Jacks # EJ-3520-BCV, once you remove the screws from the top and bottom the cover should be able to be separated at the seam towards the middle of the housing.

Hey Michael! The etrailer Electric Trailer Jack w/ 7-Way #e74GV you were looking at will definitely have enough lift for your Coleman 13R. This is a great option if you just want to power the jack off the 7-way on your vehicle instead of running it…
