Thank you. I was able to disassemble the jack and determine that the part that should last a lifetime was the part to replace. Called customer service and talked to a representative based in Missouri who quickly found the part and is going to have it on my doorstep in less than 48 hours. THANK YOU.
@@etrailer Thank you for the video and placing this part link here so I could buy the "never wear out" part for my 4 year old dump trailer jack. Customer service on phone was excellent as well.
We're happy to hear that you were able to overcome that difficulty and we're glad we could help! www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/etrailer/TJD-12000-BR.html
Great job and very helpful. However, I think the drive gear was put on the wrong side when it was put back together. Look at the way the bottom of the jack is turned when disassembling, then look at the way it is turned when assembling. I think you would have to turn the handle in a counterclockwise motion to jack it up if it is left that way.
I noticed he put the gear on the other side too, im sure anyone that has the confidence to do this themselves would put it together the same way it came apart. This was still a good video that explained it well. I bet between takes and just paying attention to filming it was the reason for the little slip up in the gear placement.
After seeing this video, I decided to work on my jack because the spring rusted out and came off at the bottom, I repair equipment for a living, I thought it would be simple. Then I noticed that spring can only be replaced on the bottom if you cut the welds. Its such a strong jack but the spring is its achilleas heel, buy the way, I did fix it.
I always found it annoying when manufactures made weak points in their products so hard to access, but I'm glad you got it fixed. Can you still tell what brand your jack was? We mess with a lot of jacks, so I'm just curious. Maybe a Bulldog or older Ram jack?
I looked at parts from the manufacture, they use Bill dog and Ram jacks, I believe its what ever is cheaper as they buy them, but with no patent, from what I see is every manufacture is using the same design and template. @@etrailer
Well done video, thanks so much, one problem, the hitch on the truck broke off and bent the frame on the trailer, jack is OK except for the bottom plate, had to cut it off and when I got the plate cut, kaboom, went up inside the tube, have a new plate made and hook for the spring, question is I should hook the spring on before I weld the base skid plate on the main tube, correct. You did a great job doing the video, excellent. Thanks
Great video! I have one work mine. I can't pull the shaft out after removing the pin. The shaft will pull out until the end is flush with the bushing end and then stops. Any suggestions?

Theirs a reason. It's nearly impossible unless you cut the footplate off , attach spring then reweld it back on. They pretended it was possible through the hole in the sleeve.
Assuming you have the Ram/etrailer # TJD-12000-BR jack shown in the video, you'd use the # TJD-12000-RODNUT replacement rod/nut. You can check it out using this link: www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/etrailer/TJD-12000-RODNUT.html

I would recommend trying to use a pin driver and hammer to drive it out enough so you can get a vise grips on it. Then, you can pry it out by using the side of the jack tube. www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/etrailer/TJD-12000-BR.html

Yes, moving the small gear to the other side of the tube would change the direction of the crank handle. www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/etrailer/TJD-12000-BR.html

Had to rotate the housing 180 degrees for one of my jacks so the grease nipples weren't an issue on the off-side of the trailer. Appreciate the video!

After watching this video, I am going out and replacing the retractor spring on my Bri-Mar trailer. Thank you very much!!!
We love to hear this! Thank you for the feedback! Glad we could help!
www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/etrailer/TJD-12000-BR.html
Finally a complete video on replacing the retractor spring! Thanks!
Not really. They didn't show him actually connecting the lower part.
Bet it's a big pain in the...
You are correct I just fixed mine.@@ratman19731
Because you can not replace the spring at the bottom, unless you cut the weld @@ratman19731
Thank you for this video! great job!

doesn’t matter which side great is on. Just put the handle on the side you want
My RAM jack is brand new and will not turn at all, was hoping this would help but I can’t get a punch in to remove the pin to remove the shaft.

You will want to hook the spring on the foot before reattaching it. If you don't, you will not be able to get to it.
@@etrailer Just what I did, worked out great with the new landing pad
@etrailer that's why you didn't show reattaching the lower spring connection in the video.
Good job
you didn't explain to remove the grease cone from the old one and move it to the new one.
What is the part number for the screw shaft and nut assembly? My nut has stripped out. Your help is appreciated.
Great video! I have one work mine. I can't pull the shaft out after removing the pin. The shaft will pull out until the end is flush with the bushing end and then stops. Any suggestions?
I like how you didn't actually show reattaching the lower spring connection.
I imagine there was no usable footage , with all the cussing.
It cant be done
How did you reattach lower spring. Mine came loose don’t go up n I hear loose
Good video!!

How do you attach the bottom of the new replacement spring you did not show in video
Theirs a reason. It's nearly impossible unless you cut the footplate off , attach spring then reweld it back on. They pretended it was possible through the hole in the sleeve.
Quantum physics and 4 very expensive snap on tools. Don't ask me which ones. I have no idea. But I'm sure there's a tool for that. Lol
RUclips University to the rescue!
i need the lifetime screw,do you have a part number for it? thanks

Im having trouble removing the gear spliced pin. Dont know why, it had plenty of grease. Its on a 92 W-W stock trailer
I would recommend trying to use a pin driver and hammer to drive it out enough so you can get a vise grips on it. Then, you can pry it out by using the side of the jack tube.

Up
Can I reverse the up and down rotation by swapping what side I put the smaller gear?
Yes, moving the small gear to the other side of the tube would change the direction of the crank handle.
