Rotating the Power Jack Head so I can use my tailgate

An easy 15 minute project, with no drilling required.
The most difficult part was tapping the holes with threads.

Very good video. Two options are informative. Question: Any particular reason you used brake cleaner as opposed to WD-40? I know its a great solvent, but always concerned about overspray taking paint off my truck, RV or any metal. Thank you.

WD40 leaves another oily film. I never use it to clean up oil or grease.

Also great info on a longer weight ditribution hitch as well. Didn’t realize the trailer jack had those bolts under the rubber pop out plugs. 👍

Very cool!
Never knew that was even an option 👍

Thanks. I wasn’t aware the drawbars came in different lengths. I’ll have to look into it as mine is a bit too close for my liking.

Was the tongue jack a Lippert jack? When I contacted Lippert and asked about the second set of holes on the jack so I could rotate the head, they said they didn't have has jacks with untapped holes. What gives?

[@deltabravo1257]

Yes, it's a Lippert Jack. I bought the same jack a month ago for my cargo trailer and it didn't even have the second set of holes drilled. I had to drill them, then tap the threads in.
