3 Bolt A Frame Jack With Drill Operation For Small Camper
Published 05/14/2026 >
Question:
I have a small camper with the normal 3-bolt A-frame jack mount. I want to get away from hand cranking, but I don’t want to wire in an electric jack. Is there a simple drill-operated jack that will bolt into the same spot?

Yes Cheryl, that’s exactly where the etrailer Manual Sidewind Trailer Jack w/SnapPad and Drill Adapter # e38AV makes the most sense. It is the A-frame version, so it is designed for the common 3-bolt A-frame mounting pattern used on most trailers.
This gives you a 2,000 lb capacity, 14" of lift, a sidewind handle, and the included 3/4" socket for drill operation. So instead of wiring an electric jack into the trailer battery, you can use the same cordless drill you may already carry for stabilizers or other campsite setup. The SnapPad is included too, which is nice on campsites where the tongue jack lands on gravel, grass, or dirt.
A couple of fit checks are worth making before you order. Your A-frame jack hole should accept a 2-1/4" outer tube, and your bolt pattern should be the standard 3" on-center style. Sometimes the flange has slotted bolt holes which make it even more universal. What camper are you putting this on, Cheryl?
