Need to replace Lippert "Smart" tongue jack

[sande005]

2017 Imagine 2670MK
Waiting on the official response from GD, but I assume I am out of warranty. And from other sources, it appears my Lippert "SmartJack" doesn't have parts available. It's all or nothing to replace.
Clear membrane that protects the switches was literally torn off by wind while towing. Amazingly I found the pieces, and it's all sealed back on with clear tape. So the jack does currently operate. But I don't expect that to have a very long life.

So now beginning to shop. Any recommended replacements?

The wish list:
Durability/weather proofness
Cannot damage by over extending/retracting
Faster up and down (but controllable for that last little bump to get exactly level)
Quieter
I liked the idea of return to a preset height, not that I could every get my current one to actually remember anything....

First two wishes are mandatory. The others..well, it's a jack. How fancy does it really need to be?

I have Stromberg Carlson 3500lb Electric A-Frame Jack on my 315RLTS. Came from GD with it. It's a jack. It works.

I did manage to break it (but then fixed it). If you're curious about the guts of the jack, check out this old thread: https://gdrvowners.com/forum/mainten...jack-leg-spins

Another requirement for me would be to easily relocate the head a 1/4 turn so you can lower your tailgate. I did this to my current Lippert tongue jack so if I had to replace it I'd want to do it to the replacement

Charles - I replaced my son's tongue jack a few years ago, and rotated it 1/3 of a turn so he could open the tail gate on his Jeep Cherokee. I'll get some shots and model numbers tomorrow and share them with you.

On my current Jack I removed the head, tapped the 2 unused holes and rotated the head 1/4 turn. Opening the tailgate when hitched is not something I need to do very often but when I need to it sure is nice having that ability.

Lippert is an awesome trailer jack! The mounting holes were different than the manual crank one I had previously, so had to drill 2 new holes (the 2 rear ones as the front one I could work with) and tap threads into the holes. I also ran nuts underneath to ensure it was strong. I saw some complaints about it being slow, but it doesn’t seem slow compared to when I had to manually crank the damn thing!

What model did you install the Lippert jack on? This info will help others.
