On my recent trip I didn't crank my tongue jack up fully and bent it. Once it was bent it hit the ground when I went up inclines. Bad went to worse and I need a new tongue jack. I have a 13 foot scamp and thought I might invest in an electric tongue jack. Does anyone have suggestion of a good one that will work on my 13 footer?

Electric Tongue Jack
After scraping my knuckles many times on the propane tank straps while cranking our 13 Scamp I put on a Barker VIP RV Power Jack
A bit on the upper end of the pricing and specs for a 13 Scamp, but that jack got transferred over to 2 more trailers over a decade before I finally sold it on our Escape 17B recently. Once you go electric tongue jack you never go back!

Check out the ultimate trailer jack. You can see it at Tractor supply. I like it because after I'm hooked up I can drop it quickly and get in the tail gate of my truck.

EZ to replace your a-frame jack.

Thanks for the suggestions. The Ultimate Jack looks like a great option because there is so much less cranking required. However, the power jack sounds great because there is no cranking required. I have a question about the Barker jack. My current jack is only 7" from the bottom of the tongue and the Barker jack is around 9". Won't that drag when I go up inclines?
