You mentioned your trailers tongue weight. You probably already know this but because no one mentioned it, the real weight of concern is the total weight the unit has to lift when raising the trailer AND truck so the spring bars can be attached. We've not had a problem with our Atwood unit but the combined weight exceeded our Class VI/V hitch to the point where it eventually bent up. We've replaced the hitch with a beefer unit BUT this lesson brought home to us the significant total weight this jack needs to contend with.
