"Tony Thomas" wrote in message news:9koCc.135183$3x.34401@attbi_s54... What are you jacking that has a tongue weight of over 800 lbs? I doubt you will find it locally. I found the XP10S at www.easternmarine.com for $51.77. -- My tongue weight is only 120-125 pounds but I want an oversized jack to allow pushing the boat/trailer around on uneven surfaces without fear of collapse. |

My tongue (the one on my trailer - before some smart ass gets cute g ) is about the same, maybe a little less. But as you mentioned elswhere - depends on where you put it. Mine is not actually on the tongue so it's holding about 200#. I can't recall what model it is, but it's "rated" 800# max. I push it around without much trouble. However, when I am pushing it, I lower the jack quite a bit. I figure it's less likely to have a problem when it isn't fully extended. |

Checked out a local Wally-Mart yesterday. They have the 1000 lb Reece
standard version. It looks just like the Fulton standard 1000lb. It's $ 69.00 CDN, the same as what the marine store quoted me for the Fulton model whenever it gets here. |
