• Does etrailer Powered A-Frame Jack # e55ZV Have Light for Night Cranking/Jacking
  Hey Andrew, great question but yes the etrailer Electric Trailer Jack # e55ZV that you referenced does have a really bright LED light that will make it easy to see as you are night jacking/cranking. I also think it's important to have plenty of light when you are really cranking it for safety sake. I attached a picture of the light to give you an idea how well you'd be able to see if you were doing some night cranking/jacking at your friend's campsite.

• Is There a Conversion Kit to Operate the etrailer Electric Trailer Jack w/a Dewalt Battery?
  No, I am sorry Bob there is no conversion kit that will let you power the etrailer Electric Trailer Jack item # e55ZV with a Dewalt battery.

• Would Rear Door of 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee Interfere with etrailer Trailer Jack # e55ZV
  Hey Cindy, that would depend on a few things but a good indicator would be if the rear door of your 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee is hitting the manual jack your 2024 TAB 400 has currently. If so, then yeah it would definitely hit the powered jack part # e55ZV. If it's pretty close currently then it might not hit it but one solution would be a ball mount that is longer to get the distance further out and would prevent the interference. I would need to know the amount of drop your current ball...
