Power Jack Repair or Replace

I folded over the lower jack tube on my Atwood power jack while moving my travel trailer around with my skid loader tonight. Are these lower tubes replaceable or do I just buy a whole new jack? The model number on the front is Atwood Heavy Duty 86065, but not much comes up in searches for parts.
  • For the couple hundred it will take to replace it I would go with new and improved.
  • I did the same thing with ours. I don't think it was an Atwood though. I was able to find the parts, but by the time I figured up the parts cost and shipping, I was within about $50 of just replacing the whole thing and not having to fool with the complete disassembly it would have taken to effect the repair.
  • I would just replace it. Cost is likely to be close, so might as well get a new one.
  • Thanks guys. New one is ordered. I really hate not being able to fix stuff. Might be some future use the motor and gearbox in this thing though....hmm.
