Hey Tim! Yes, the etrailer Manual Sidewind Trailer Jack w/ Drill Adapter # e88GV will work on your 4,000 lb camper. The capacity of the jack is 2,000 lbs which only needs to handle the tongue weight. Tongue weight is typically 10-15% of your trailer weight so it won't be lifting the full weight of your trailer.
Any big trips coming up with your camper once you get the jack installed?
