How to Save Time with Manual Scissor Jacks on Travel Trailer
Published 10/20/2022
Question:
I don't mind extending my scissor jacks but sometimes we move the trailer frequently and I get tired of all the manual labor I have to put in. It's not in the budget to upgrade to a fancy electric jack system for the front and back at this point but is there something that I can use?

Thanks for reaching out!
Yes, I recommend checking out the Stromberg Carlson Base Pad Peak for Scissor and Stabilizer Jacks # SC38MR. This is perfect for travel trailers and each base pad sits 8" tall so that's less extending you have to do for each scissor jack.
These are rated for 3,500 lbs but that's more for the tongue jack side of things since scissor jacks are only meant to stabilize the trailer.
