Which Direction Should I Mount the Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jack LC285325?
Updated 11/17/2025 | Published 12/17/2024 >
Question:
Some trailers have scissor jacks mounted at a 45 degree at the corners verses the 90 degree in the corners. Which is recommended or preferred ? I have a 2018 19 ft Forrest River GeoPro

Hey James! It comes down to whatever is the easiest way to mount them and access the jack with a crank handle. The Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jack item # LC285325 you were looking at can be mounted in either orientation.
I have linked an installation video to show you how to get this jack set up.

Hey James, how did the setup go with the Lippert scissor jack on your GeoPro? Did mounting it at a 45-degree angle make it easier to reach with the crank handle? Your update could make it easier for others working on similar trailers.
