Hello Ann:
Not 100% sure I understand this post, but it sounds like you are looking for a New or
replacement hitch jack, with a wheel, which would enable you to actually push the trailer if need be?
There is a place in Mississauga Ont that sells New tongue jacks (2500 lbs capacity) which is more than sufficient, and they sell them for about $20 CDN, the wheel would be extra.

See below, as I am going to pick one up from them this week.
I hope that helps?

I put an electric one on last year,
and it's one of the very best Mods I,ve done this far.
Even my wife likes using the jack (thingy) now.

Picked it up a Princess Auto (on Sale of course).

The electric jack just bolts up the the front tonge.
Push the button on it, and your trailer will go up(or)down without any cranking whatsoever.


Just connects to 12 volt batterie.

Looks like the one shown here.

I am thinking that if a wheel is wanted "for easy moving" an electric tonuge jack isn't necessary. If the tounge is heavy enough to need an electric jack you are not going tobe rolling it around.

Just saying...

that's kind of over kill for us I don't mind cranking
we can lift the tongue & move the sucker by hand --just thought a jack thingy would be easier is all

Thanks for the input!!

It just gives the person the best of 2 worlds.
Wheel for easy moving,
and Electric up/down for easy as pie hooking up, and unhooking.

IMO, why crank the heavy weight of the trailer togne, the 2 propane tanks, and batterie ,??(especially when my wife is helping me).??
I back the tow vehicle,she lifts/lowers the jack.

No sweat=no problem.

Just a personal treat ,that I think was worth every penny...imo.
Oh yeah, it also has 2 built in lights on it, so you can see what your doing connecting/disconnecting in the dark also.

Ulysse What the heck do you have in your trailer that makes it so heavy that you need an electic jack?????? LOL I am and older female :-))) and I have a loaded 16' Scamp with bathroom. I often tow on my own and I have no problem with lifting or lowing the jack by hand. It doesn't take a lot of effort to turn the handle. Just don't ask me to actually move the trailer on the jack wheel more than a inch or two. LOL

Hey, each their own.
I was in bad need of a new jack,
and that's the decision I made.

I have a bad back,and althou you might think it,s funny,
I think it,s a blessing.
