Great product !!They help hauling trailers to less rear end drop on the truck with heavyweight trailers. Like pull behind camper and car hauling trailers.

I purchased this product for use with my new truck camper. I have no complaints.

You will need to use it to raise up to the trailer. So the positions are up. Then measure and make sure your trailer is level

It will not work. The plugs on your trailer and towbar have the same 'gender' as the connectors on this plug.

They have spade connectors. You just need females. Very inexpensive. http://catalog.redneck-trailer.com/advancedwebpage.aspx?cg=1551&cd;=4

Leslie, did you ever figure it out? I just started traveling towing a 18' trailer with 3 dogs and I need to buy a good GPS that will avoid those steep grades if possible, but also lead me to the closest campgrounds, groceries and gas. There are too many choices and it is so confusing. Looking for advice from someone who has figured it out! Thanks!

Not sure. I do know the winch connects to the plate on your trailer with bolts whose heads slide in to the winch and face down into holes in your plate. If your plate's holes are not big enough just drill larger holes. This thing is a beast. You should buy it.

You'll definitely need a connection between the tow vehicle and trailer. This should be supplied by the installer.

If the horse trailer has a "chassis" battery with enough power, yes. Some trailers only have a small enough battery to activate the breakaway braking system on a trailer. If the trailer only has a small gauge 12v wire running from the tow vehicle to the trailer pigtail, it will not supply enough power for the jack. The jack draws about 20-25 amps, and comes with a 30 amp inline fuse. I would bring your tow vehicle (and your trailer or pictures of the trailer) to a towing place and ask them.

No....you get the "business end" for the trailer....brackets, bars, cams, chains etc...you'll have to get the receiver for your tow vehicle. Make sure you get the proper sized ball that fits your trailer hitch as well. I pull a 29' unit with very little sway.

Not sure what you have in mind. You normally put accessory units above the receiver and it does not interefere with towing. Below the hitch would make it impossible to tow simultaneously. Hope this helps.

I don't know what that trailer model is, but I'd assume its going in the water. In that case, sure, these things are great. Just measure the inside of your wheel hub to make sure you know the right inside diameter BB to get. They have a printable template on their website if you don't have a good measuring tool.

Not that I am aware of. It is more oriented to vehicle use. Ashould work OK. far as a tractor trailer, it should work OK,

I've trailered mine a few times but my distance is short, about 8 miles and my speeds are only 55. I didn't have a problem.

Think of the electricity like flowing water. The electricity flows "in" from the vehicle and "out" towards the trailer. It only works in 1 direction.

No, They will not work. The Tie rods are too long, they require the vehicle to be lifted.

Yes, work's great, and is simple to install. See the video for installation on You Tube.Good Towing.!!
