Will Standard Battery Operated Drill Operate Lippert Quick Drop Tongue Jack

Question

Question:

I am considering replacing my power tongue jack on my Geopro travel trailer to get clearance for my tailgate. Will a standard battery operated drill be sufficient for this jack especially for lifting the trailer/truck while installing the weight distribution bars? Trailer Tongue weight is about 600.

Hey John; your standard cordless drill will have no issues operating the Lippert Quick Drop Tongue Jack # LC733926. Just make sure your battery is charged or it might not perform as well as you want it to. The jack has a lift capacity of 1,500 lbs so your 600 lb tongue weight won't be a problem.

Any big trips planned with your trailer this summer?

Hi Robin, thanks for the reply. I decided to simply turn the head of my power jack 90 degrees. That will give me the clearance for my tailgate.

Hi Mark; the only jack like that is the Lippert Power Stance Electric Trailer Jack #LC89VR but it exceeds the amount you're looking to spend. If you're fine with one that only runs off of the 7-way then I recommend the etrailer Electric…
