elopomorph Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I need to replace the trailer jack on the boat trailer. I want to get a trailer jack that has a wheel. This is for a trailer holding a Pathfinder 22. So a boat trailer with a GVWR about 6000 pounds. Is there a superior trailer jack with a wheel that can withstand salt water better then the other trailer jacks? I don't plan to ever get saltwater on the trailer jack but I am sure there will be some windy boat ramps, or saltwater could come from the boat. So I am hoping to find a strong and rugged trailer jack with a wheel, that will last. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bamaskeet Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 A 2200 loaded on a double axle trailer is just north of 4000 lbs. I agree with Fish5, Dutton Lamson make a good trailer Jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCTribute Posted January 20, 2023 Report Share Posted January 20, 2023 This is what I put on my 2200TE Ameritrail trailer, relatively larger diameter wide wheel, also has a bearing at the bottom of the tube for turning instead of the entire tube rotating.

16bayfisher Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 Recently switched from the factory jack to a Trailer Valet drill powered jack on my 2200 trs. I have a slant to my driveway which requires full extension of the jack. I counted it was around 70 turns on the factory jack. The drill powered is a game changer. No more burden of raising / lowering the jack. They have several options with wheels. I got a refurbished one for around $90. The build quality seems very good and it flips out the way when towing. It comes with a regular crank handle and the drill attachment. It's acts as a theft deterrent as well when the handle is removed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
