Jack replacement

Hey,

Pretty out of my element on this one but wondering if anybody has any advice/knowledge on this one.. I was unable to store my TC inside this year and suffered from it. After a huge snow year I just checked on the camper today and found that one of my jacks has collapsed on itself. There is some damage to the flooring but hoping I can get in there and fix it later. My main concern right now it that don't feel comfortable Jerry rigging the jack back together and think I need to replace it. Looked on the jacks to try and find out what brand they were to get something similar but was unable to distinguish anything particular. Hoping somebody knows something and could help me out a bit so the replacement goes as easy as possible. It's an older truck camper a Lance 1993 squire ext. any help would be great thx fam

    Although we cannot buy and sale on RV.NET, we can use PMs's for personal business. No harm in that. Fact is, I have 4 Riecos as backups to my Hijacker Camper Jacks.

    Yeah reddog, that's the ticket. Teton I have 3 of the HiJackers and 4 Reicos.

    He already told me in PM he has hydraulics.

    I'm sure we can work out something on the jack itself, although we don't trade in post. The thing is, you do probably DO need to learn how to post pics first.

    Once the folks here can see what your words are saying, you will get some quality and quantity advice, help, step-by-step if it came to that. Need the pics first.

    I'll just add, in case Teton is late back, the camper isn't right with him, there's a distance (so time) involved.

    Lance 1993 probably used Hydraulic jacks. Need photos to be sure.

    Rieco Hydraulic Camper Jacks



    Or

    Hijacker Camper Jacks are no longer available. Rieco-Titan hydraulic camper jacks are a quality substitute.

    I may have some extras from that era. Hydraulic? Electric? Mechanical screw? You're in my state. Getting together might work. If you can't figure how to post pictures attach one or two to an email and drop me aline.

    Recommend you snap a picture of the jack and I'm sure someone will be able to identify it. You may even luck up and find someone with a spare as it's happened on here before.

    If you don't know how to post pictures, read this post: posting pictures
