Electric Trailer Jack
 
Anybody using and electric tongue jack? What brand are you using? I was looking at the Atwood Marine unit but it only has a 1000# capacity. The marine unit just means that it is a side mount with caster. They have higher rated ones but they are for the A-Frame coupler. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Todd

I have an Atwood unit for an A frame front on the trailer. That thing can darn near lift the back of my F350 off the ground :eek: Also has a built in light which is nice for night use(you can see what you're doing) :cool:

Thanks, guys. I have been thinking about the Atwood because it seems to be the most reasonably priced and the manual override can be activated without disassembly. I looks like I will have to go with the A-frame model and do a little fabricating to make it work with my Al I-beam trailer.
