Hello Wendy, thanks for reaching out. If you are looking for a side mount jack, the Trailer Valet JXS # TV64FR that you were looking at is a great choice. The 5,000 lb rating is enough for virtually any camper or trailer. It comes with a hand crank, but it can also be operated with a powered drill which is a huge convenience. Just keep in mind that it will fit trailer frames up to 4-3/4" tall x 3-3/4" deep so please do make sure your trailer meets this requirement.
