To finish answering some questions:
I saw they had those on the website, I would like to see some close up pictures, as they may be what I need. The question I have is: since the angle of the head is not adjustable like the standard WDH, how short can the chains get before their too short?
I am curious about how this would work with my old brackets since I still need the two strut arms and brackets… I need more pictures of this.
I have not put the box that I made back on yet, and I’ve only had a single battery on for the E-Brakes. I would really like to put my box back on because it has some really cool features that are not normally seen on a trailer, besides the 2-6volts and 1-12volt. I put a lot of time and money into it, so I would like to refrain from making a new one.
The Propane tank mount is welded on, so if I have to I can cut that off and move it forward about an inch, but then if I get an electric jack, it would not fit… I admit I have a short tongue. ?
I will be trying it this weekend baring the 5 to 10 inch rain forecast.
More to come.

Joe, have you seen that Hensley is now offering snap up brackets in place of the jacks. If needed, you may be able to order the snap up brackets for your Hensley.
Thanks!

I agree with Barney - forgot to mention your battery box. Pretty confident it will hit. Valid point on using your own snap up brackets. Hensley does sell the same setup.
That would save cost on new screw jack and mount.

Glad you got it repaired and installed. Did you try it with the battery box installed or not? I am very curious as to whether it will work with it. Please report back. :)
