Hey Kyle! Yes, an impact driver can be used to power the etrailer Manual Sidewind Trailer Jack w/ Tongue Weight Scale # e63KV. We have tested this with standard drills and impact drivers, both are acceptable and won't hurt the jack.

This jack includes the 3/4" socket for drill operation and has a manual crank handle as a backup. It also includes our etrailer Trailer Jack Foot Scale, and a SnapPad # SN47FR is available separately.

What kind of trailer will you be mounting the jack on?

Hello Bruce, yes it can. The etrailer Electric Trailer Jack #e55ZV can be rotated to the size and the bolts will still line up. We have this jack on one of our trailers here at the shop and I have checked and verified it can be rotated.
