Okay so I'm down to making a decision on 2 Electric tongue jacks.
Keep in mind that the head on some power tongue jacks can be quite large so if your tow vehicle has a tailgate it could be blocked from dropping fully by the TJ head. I had this exact problem myself but was able to easily solve it by removing the head bolts on my UltraFab 3002 tongue jack and rotating the head 180 degrees, thereby allowing sufficient clearance for my Avalanche's tailgate to clear the TJ head. The head on the LCI tongue jack I have on our current Freedom Express can't be rotated and it certainly is annoying to not be able to drop the tailgate fully, annoying enough that I may eventually replace the LCI with another UltraFab.
