bronzebackhuntr Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hey guys, a couple weeks ago I was headed out and my buddies hitch was real high. So I crank my trailer jack all the way up and now it won't crank back down. Had to lift it on and off the ball on his truck. Any idea how to fix this????

brownfish03 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Id soak it in some white lithium grease...or maybe shoot WD40 all over it and let it sit a bit. Then, try to get it down....hope it works for ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackertxw175 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 sounds like the worm or gear on the crank handle came out of the top slot or notch, kind of like loosening an adjustable wrentch all the way out that won't go back in unless it is guided back into first slot. when it came out, the weight of the trailer probably pushed it at a slight angle and you will have to get the weight off it to be able to get it to start back in. good luck and patience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
