Quality Trailer Jack replacement

Featured Replies

Pretty unbelievable but my 2 year old boat is on it's second trailer jack, the first one a zerk fitting would not release and broke off when trying to grease it and Basspro replaced it with an even cheaper model and now it had a piece of plastic at the bottom that has broken off...sigh.

Anyone know of any brands that still make a decent trailer jack, I looked at one of the Fulton but appears not to be found anywhere. Just thought I would ask, looking for a 1500lbs, 12in lift side frame mount.

My Fulton jack has been up and hundreds of times. It is coming up on 10 years old.

Yup that is what I am trying to find but for whatever reason they don't appear to be making them any longer, I have emailed them and guess we will see what they say.

Found one listed on fleet and farm, will be interesting to see if they actually have it or not. For whatever reason the model I am looking for appears to have been discontinued, looks nice but even west marine had it listed on the site as discontinued.

Perhaps consider a Dutton Lainson Trailer Jack.

They offer a wide selection of quality units and have a decent

and very long standing reputation.

I've been riding one for coming up on 10 years.

No problems.

That was the first one that I had and one of the zerk fittings broke off on the grease gun. Since it was still under warranty Basspro replaced it with a cheaper version, should have requested the same version but it was a dutton lainson dlx. If Fleet and Farm does not have the Fulton that I ordered I will probably go back to the dutton lainson dlx version.

I hear that.

I use these replacement fittings on three different grease guns.

Pretty sweet.

This is complete overkill for a Leigh’s weight boat trailer. But I wanted something more stable and adjustable than your standard boat trailer tongue jack.

Welp that would explain why the one I was looking for was nowhere to be found. The website is still up so not sure what the latest status, hopefully I will not have any issues, so much for the 5 year warranty, lol.

Don't panic yet, the parent company, First Brands, say they have a confirmed buyer for the Horizon (towing group including Fulton) and TMD (Plastic Molding) groups. I'm hopeful we'll start seeing Fulton products available soon.

  • Buyer Status: As of April 23, 2026, First Brands is in "near-final" negotiations with a buyer for these two units as going concerns.

  • Automaker Role: The identities of the specific buyers for Horizon/TMD are expected to be formally named in court filings by April 30. Ford and GM have been instrumental in these negotiations, providing liquidity to keep the brands attractive for the incoming owners.

My jack came in yesterday and the build quality is SO MUCH better than the other ones that I had used. It did cost more but so much better build quality, hope they can continue on. Will be putting it on hopefully today.

Welp I can say the Fulton xlt is the nicest trailer jack that I have owned. I hope somehow the new owners will bring stuff back to market. Most trailer jacks have 1 or 2 zerks for grease. This Fulton has 3, the bottom where the wheel is has a ball bearing race to make it easier to move the wheel and has a zerk to keep it geeased up.Compress_20260428_224617_7841.jpgCompress_20260428_224616_6788.jpgCompress_20260428_224617_7369.jpg
