Question:

I need to replace the a-frame jack on my camper. I created a special adapter for my drill to use with the corner jacks and it works great. I am looking for an a-frame jack that somehow may be adaptable as well. I guess one that has a removable handle with a stud of some kind would work. Also the jack needs 5000 lb capacity. If possible a lift that is 15 inch or more would be good as well.

I believe your best option would be the etrailer.com Round A-Frame Trailer Jack - Sidewind # TJA-5000S-B. This A-frame jack has a 5,000 lb capacity and has 15 inches of lift. There is no way to remove the handle or any of the other 5k jacks so that it could be operated with a power drill.

A powered jack like the part # SC63VR might be a better option. This is the highest rated powered jack we have at 4,500 lbs and has 23 inches of lift.

I attached a review video for you to check out.
