Electric tongue jack manual crank
Does anyone know where I can get the manual crank. After a not so fun camping trip our plug to the electric tongue jack broke off inside our tv. Removed that and used our crank to adjust tongue jack and get the heck out of there. I guess we left it sitting on the bumper. So now no motor for the tongue jack, (needs a new plug hopefully that's all) and the crank is gone. I have looked all over the internet and can't seem to find a replacement. It is a top wind and has an odd nut. It is round on all sides except one which is square. Looked and looked. We are not having fun...yet.

Do you know the brand of jack it might be? Maybe post a picture of it to help identify it.

Amazon sells them
http://www.amazon.com/Quick-Products...acement+handle
they showed 3 styles at amazon
I also saw them listed at various RV stores online
Check your brand and model for correct fit, not sure they are universal.
I used mine once, what a job. late found out it was a corroded wire connection.

That one sure looks like mine. Is looking like almost all in the $125-$195 range are made by Pacific Rim International with a few variations (some have a bottom switch and two lights, the other has a top switch and one light. The crank access cover may have a leveller, the cord may have a Bargman plug, the tube may be 2" or 2.2") but all have the same manufacturer.

This looks the same as mine

The electrical connection plug is in the tow vehicle? So it is not hard-wired to the TM battery? You must have to plug/unplug it every time you hitch/unhitch the TM. That is a new arrangement to me. Not meaning to hijack the thread ...

Some of the ones I saw had a Bargman plug attatched. Seemed kinda dumb.

Manual Crank handle
Well it is a really old electric tongue jack motor. Called a Trac. From my research I suspect it may be a marine motor? Can't find anything else about Trac. Anyway, I think I found a crank handle on etrailers.com. Those people are very helpful. We decided we are going to sell this thing. We really like the camper. Just not camping. It was too much work. Both of us have physical limitations. That being said, we will fix up what needs fixing and sell. Still may have to ask advice as we finish up 2 little projects. Luckily, the tongue jack motor now works! Husband fixed it. Just a couple little things and she is ready to go. Thanks for your help.
