Choosing a Caravan Trailer Jack
The main considerations are weight rating, power source and mounting style. Electric jacks are the most convenient but cost more. Drill-powered units offer a middle ground, using your existing cordless drill. Hydraulic jacks like the Purpleline Kojack are compact and well suited to smaller setups. Check the weight rating against your caravan's ball weight. For levelling after parking, see our caravan stabiliser legs and levelling range.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a trailer jack and a jockey wheel?
A trailer jack focuses on lifting the coupling point up and down for hitching. A jockey wheel also includes a wheel for moving the caravan around when unhitched. Some products combine both functions.
Do I need a base plate for my trailer jack?
A base plate or jockey block helps on soft ground by spreading the load. It prevents the jack foot from sinking into grass, gravel or dirt. We stock base plates and jockey blocks from Black Jack and Purpleline.
Can I fit a trailer jack myself?
Most trailer jacks mount to the A-frame using a clamp or bolts. Electric models need a 12V power connection. Check the product instructions for your specific model. If you are unsure, a qualified installer can help.
