Can the New Happijac Clutchless Motor Heads Be Used on an Older 4160 System?
Updated 05/11/2023 | Published 05/09/2023
Question:
Hi, I have a truck camper with Happijac 4800 electric jacks on the front, and Happijac 4160 electric jacks on the rear. A motor went bad, and I understand they arent made anymore. Will Item # LC733960 work with my jacks? Your expert says they will not, but several of your other experts say they will. Thanks

This has come up before and I've personally reached out to Happijac and they said it is not recommended to use the new Replacement Clutchless Motor Head for HappiJac Truck Camper Jacks # LC759927 on the 4160 jacks.
Reason being, is the 4160 is a 2-piece construction ACME screw drive, and the roll pins that connect the ACME screw to the upper assembly can shear with the clutchless motors.
