Power tongue jack mod

Jack was in the way of being able to fully open the tailgate.

The brand / model jack I have accommodates rotating the jack head to make more space for the tailgate.

Here's how I did the project
  • That's great! We currently have a manual jack but in looking at motorized, I see this is an issue. Great video. THANK YOU

    :C
  • It's hard to say which jacks this mod will work on.

    I have a Lippert jack. I'm tempted to order the same one for my cargo trailer. The link to it is in the description of the video.

    You can clearly see the two rubber plugs I pulled out.
  • When I switched to lithium battery I moved it inside the storage area . Then I moved the propane back to where the batteries where . Bought a steel strap at tractor supply and moved the jack back 5 inches . So much easier to load and unload
