Adding Swing Away Jack Hinge

After installing a new set of swing away brackets to clear my dually wheels, I noticed that the passenger side power cord is very tight. Is that normal or is there extension cables for the power cords? TIA

Correct. You do not need to lift the motor off the jack, just loosen the motor set screws and rotate to the desired angle before tightening back up.

Give Dave Mann a call at Northwoodโ€™s and ask him.

The Rieco Titan heads can be rotated to get more power cord reach.

That was my next question. Can you rotate the motor? I see a set screw but didnโ€™t know if you can just loosen that and turn the motor to where you need it?
