Cordless drill for scissor jacks

Looking to purchase a cordless drill to raise and lower the four scissor jacks on my TT. A make and model number with a strong tork just for that would be very helpful.
Thank you
  • I used a cordless impact one time annoyed the heck out of me and the neighbors. I bought a Ryobi 18 volt drill 2 batteries charger and case for $69. at Home Depot.

    Same batteries can be used with a Ryobi cordless air compressor that I carry.
  • If you use wood blocks under the levelers so the reach is less, it would be a lot less hand cranking. I have done it both ways over the years and found, the time it took me to find the charger, get the drill out and swap a battery, i could hand-crank two TT's . :B

    Please don't use an impact and annoy the entire campground. I use a cheap Harbor Freight Drill.

    I only run the jacks to the ground and finish by hand so that the amount of load can be felt.

    I have a Porter but more important make sure it is 18volt or higher. Beats the hell out of using a hand crank every time. Buy 2 batteries so you can always have one fully charged.
