Question:
I have a trailer with a gvwr of 3500 lbs and tongue weight of 240 lbs. Would it be possible to move such a trailer up a slight inclined driveway, over short distances, with this tool? If going down a slightly sloped driveway would this tool provide any braking?

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack part # ORJW1SU isn't quite cutout out for what you're wanting. Instead, I recommend the Trailer Valet 5X Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover part # STC-V211 which is rated for more weight, is easier to move the trailer with, and has a brake. It can also handle slight inclines and slopes. The really neat feature is that you can use a power drill to move the trailer with the Drill Attachment part # TVDA.
