Caravan electric jack


Just bought one of these and very impressed with the response to questions and service so hopefully the item will be as good. The postage has increased by $20 since yesterday but still reasonable.

Sorry for the delay Denis I forgot to hit the subscribe button. I intend to bolt/weld (probably bolt) a steel plate across the A frame and mount it on that. It will need to be slightly offset to clear the hand brake cable but looks do-able. It is in transit at the moment.

I have a Trail-A-Mate jack which I have used as a jockey wheel and jack when/if I need one but had it fail on me. The electric one has a handle that you can use to crank it if there are any electrical problems. It's at the PO now and I'll be picking it up tomorrow.

Finally got it all finished now and very happy with it even if it is a little slower than I'd imagined but it's not an issue.
