Starting to look for an electric jack for the trailer. Are there specific ones for horse trailers because of their weight or can we use one for a camper trailer? Trailer weighs approx. 10,000 lbs.

 

Thanks for the info.

Bigfoot hydraulic jack!  I am sure there is more than one place to buy them.  I just googled it and this one on top of the list.  My trailer has the same one on it and it works great.

ditto that hogtown, hydraulic beats an electric hands down, cost more but you won't be disappointed with it.

Another vote for hydraulic jack, much faster and less noise than electric...

I bought mine off of the internet and had a local trailer shop install it for me. Took a couple of extra days but ended up saving $250.00.... Guess the local guys wanted to make some extra money.
