Bastion Distribution Top-Wind A-Frame Trailer Jack 5000 lb — Rectangular Footpad, 14.8" Travel

If you tow an RV, camper, boat trailer or utility trailer, having a reliable, heavy-duty jack at the tongue makes hookup, leveling and stationary support faster and safer. The BJ-5000TW-1 is built from powder-coated alloy steel with corrosion-resistant finishes and offers almost 15 inches of travel, a cranked manual top-wind for easy operation and a rectangular footpad pre-attached so you can use it straight from the box.

How does this jack make hitching and leveling easier?

The top-wind crank lets you raise and lower the trailer tongue smoothly without crawling under the trailer or wrestling with a handle at an awkward angle. Nearly 14.8" of vertical travel gives enough lift to align couplers and adjust trailer height on uneven ground.

• Top-wind crank for comfortable standing operation
• 14.8" travel range for wide adjustment
• Pre-mounted rectangular footpad improves contact on soft or uneven surfaces

Is it durable enough for long-term outdoor use?

Yes — the BJ-5000TW-1 uses alloy steel with a powder-coated finish to resist corrosion and wear from weather exposure. The heavy-duty construction is designed to hold a stationary load up to 5000 lb, making it suitable for frequent towing and seasonal storage.

• Powder-coated steel resists rust and chipping
• Robust internal gearing and solid welds for dependable support
• Factory-assembled footpad reduces weak points compared to aftermarket adapters

What size trailers and situations is this jack suited for?

This jack supports trailers, campers, RVs, boats and utility trailers with tongue loads within the 5000 lb stationary capacity. It performs well for routine hitching, short-term campsite leveling, and securing a trailer on uneven or softer ground thanks to the large rectangular pad.

• Ideal for compact to medium-sized RVs, travel trailers and utility trailers
• Helpful for boat trailers during launch/retrieval and storage
• Pre-mounted pad reduces sinking on gravel, dirt or grass

What should I know about installation and maintenance?

Installation is straightforward on standard A-frame tongue mounts; bolt holes align with common jack mounts and the unit ships ready to attach. Maintenance is minimal: keep the screw and gear area clean and periodically apply light lubricant to preserve smooth operation and prevent corrosion.

• Fits standard A-frame mounts; bolt-on installation
• Keep threads clean and lightly lubricated for longevity
• Inspect welds and fasteners periodically for secure attachment
