Crank handle

Does anyone know where I might obtain an older crank handle to a flat jack stand on a 1971 13 Scamp?

Tongue Jack

Probably be easier to just replace the jack.

Here is side frame mount tongue jack

I'd personally go to if not electric, then an A-frame style tongue jack

The Bulldog A-frame one is really nice

Crank Handle

You could try looking for a RV recycler (junk yard), as this type of jack is also used on small pop-up campers.  Personally, I would go to Harbor Freight or look through my extra tools  and find a socket that fits over the shaft that your broken crank is attached to.  You remove the handle, drill a hole in the socket that matches the size of the hole in the crank shaft, and then bolt it to the shaft.  You can now either use your ratchet or a portable electric drill to activate the jack.  Best of luck.
