I just purchased my 1st every LQ which is a gooseneck. It has a manual RAM jack. Can someone give me advice, information or website link to something I can get to power the jack, without replacing the jack?

We did an add-on motor but it was not very good and finally burned out at the most inopportune time. Had a dealer put on electric jack, should have done that the first time.

I've found a few websites that offer the elec conversion kit for a "2 speed" jack. Mine is manual, what speed? It's whatever speed I crank it!

Dealer did mine for only $50 more than that motor! (about 3 yrs ago) And have had no issues with it.
