Time to replace front electric Jack
My 7 year old electric Jack will barely lift my trailer, and it makes a grinding popping sound. The battery is good and it’s plugged into a 50amp outlet. So that said, I’m going to start hittin...

Makes me glad that I have a 40yr old trailer with original standard manual jack and it still works..
Just be aware, there is several different diameters of the jack tube, if you get one too large and you will have to bore out the hole the jack goes through and possibly drill new bolt holes.
rather not be lifting a 1500lb tongue load with a manual jack. Wouldn't have a travel trailer w/o an electric jack, let's me enjoy more time camping, quicker to unhook, quicker to hook up. But to each his own.
Tongue weight on my travel trailer is right around 1000 lbs fully loaded and ready to go.. Another 500 lbs on the tongue isn't all that big of a jump.. You should try my 18ft 10K flatbed trailer with 4K lbs of fire wood and almost 4K lbs worth of tractor at the same time..
The workout keeps you healthy.
