Question:

Im looking for a new trailer jack for my 22foot SunTracker tri-toon with a 150 HP Merc. Id like to have one with the rectangle foot plate but Im not sure what weight capacity I need for the jack. Thanks for your help!!

Hello Michael,

Happy to get the right jack for your SunTracker. I looked up the specs for the weights, the boat itself is about 3,000 pounds, the motor is around 500 pounds, then fuel, gear and batteries around 400 pounds, and the trailer itself is going to be around 1,000 pounds. So you are looking at around 4,900 pounds. To be on the safe side I recommend going with the Trailer Valet JXS # TV64FR. This trailer jack is rated for 5,000 pounds. It has the hand crank but can also be used with a drill, which I think is a really awesome feature. This jack fits on trailer frames up to 4-3/4" tall x 3-3/4" deep, and needs 8" of space to be installed. There is a wheel that can be used in place of the foot # TV89FR, might come in handy one day if you need to maneuver the trailer a bit. I linked a review video for you to check out, let me know what you think.

Happy Holidays to you and your family, from your friends here at etrailer.
