I'm thinking of an electric jack, too. The price looks good. Do you know how the wiring works? Do you simply wire it to the pod batteries?

I just looked at the ad. They also have one for 169.99 that you can do it by hand as well. I may look at it just in case the power did not work. Thanks for the info. Let us know how it works.

Be sure to check clearance between tongue jack and LP tank (or dual LP tank set-up) just to be sure.

I have also thought of installing one of these, fully up to fully down is a heck of a lot of cranking. At a minimum I have thought about figuring a way to use my drill to run it up/down.
