Check out Fulton's F2 series.
They are impressively smooth and easy to use, within your price range and does not need electricity!

That is not the case on all trucks. Its intended use is not to run high amp accessories. If you check the fuse box, many list it as trailer battery charge.

Sorry Brian, I called and canceled the order, GF said you need the exercise:lolhit:



Come to think of it, I'ld really like to add one myself. Sometimes, it feels like a heart attack cranking that thing off after a day at the lake!

Maybe she is tired of operating the jack for Sydwayz? :)

Those are great! I put one on my Boatmate trailer that carried a 24' Supra wakeboat. Before the upgrade you couldn't move the boat by yourself. It weighed around 5500# loaded. After the F2 install I could push it around my shop. The leg is adjustable too, so you can set it about 2-3 turns from touchdown and have full length to lift.

i have one still in the box that i won on a poker run a few yrs. back. it is the same one that came on my skater trailer. it has been sitting in my boat storage collecting dust since. if you're interested in it, let me know. i'll get over there this weekend and snap a pic of it still in the box etc...

i had delusions of grandeur that i would actually use it one day. it's been 3 or so yrs. LOL.
