What is the weight rating (capacity) of the jack? Will the seller answer?

This is a stabilization Jack ans is not meant to actually lift anything. That is likely why there is no lift rating. If your putting it on a camper as a stabilizing Jack it should work fine.

Sorry to take so long with an answer as I am a full timer and traveling. Some people complain about this jack being slow. In my opinion the manufacture has geared it down so it can handle more weight and it really isn't so slow that I would complain about it. I also found this jack to have a very powerful motor. I've bought one for myself and one as a gift we both like the jack. I've discovered that if you wind it all the way up and leave it there the breaker will kick on and off. Just tap the down switch and it will be fine. I don't think anyone would be disappointed with the purchase.

I cant say for sure, but I use mine for loading furniture into my trailer. I haven't had any trouble. I though the ad said it would handle up to 900 pounds

I'm not sure how much it weighs but it isn't light. Also, It feels like you're holding onto a mini jack hammer so hold on tight!

I don't have any more than 7 mos. experience with this specific jack, but my previous 3-ton jack was very similar and lasted a little over 4 yrs. and was also made in China. I inherited it from my neighbor used (5 yrs. old) and he regularly serviced 4 cars & a light truck with it. I had heard that China made jacks could be short lived, so having a 2 yr. warranty from a longtime & reputable company like OTC is comforting. I plan to take good care of my jack and anticipate it lasting a long time.

I haven't weighed it, but I would not want a heavier jack hammer. This is relatively easy to maneuver and an excellent tool. It's still a work out even at 35 lbs.

Sorry but I sold the trailer it was mounted on and cannot tell you the answer. But I can tell u it was a very good trailer jack that worked extremely well and was very easy to mount on my SeaDoo trailer.

it should work, jack is rated to 3,500 lbs,,,do you know the tounge weight of your trailer??? pretty sure it's well below 3,500 lbs. works great on my trailer, up and down with ease but mine is only a 20".

It's ready to go. It takes a 1/4" jack. My last one did not last too well. The constant double pedal action caused it to come apart inside; however, I thought it was still the best option for the price, and bought another one. So far - no problems with this one.

I don't know in foot pounds. The motor has enough "torque" to drive the jack down tight, but not enough to extend the jack further once it is tight. Our trailer is very heavy so I would not expect it to move the trailer. A word to the wise, the BAL jack that this works on, is not good for lifting once the foot is tight to the ground. The single sided screw mechanism will tilt the jack and make the gear type edges of the metal parts skip past each other. Use some other means to lift the trailer for level and then extend the jacks tight. The scissors units are stabilizers only.

If you're careful about the rubber end around the jack (i.e. not bending it or putting undo stress on it for any significant length of time) you should be fine. Haven't had any other issues.

I'm not an engineer, so I can't directly answer that question. My travel trailer is between 3000 and 3500 # (depending on the load) and the jack lifts and supports the wheel. If I need to lift it several inches it can take a while to crank it by hand, but it does a fine job getting the trailer level. I have recently tried using an impact drill to raise the jack (because this type of drill does not twist your wrist) but there were some problems with that approach. The jack-screw started to show signs of metel shavings which might mean I am near the limit of the jack's weight load. That said - I would buy another one of these if this one breaks. If you get one you might also want to buy a large pizza-delivery bag to store it in. Works perfect.

I too was debating over the 500lb or 750lb model for my Husqvarna, so I called MoJack and was told to figure 1/3rd of the total weight as these jacks are designed to lift only the front wheels, not the complete mowing unit. I was able to go with the 500lb unit as my mower is just under 900lbs total. And this jack works like a charm. Great investment.

no longer have it, it broke. purchased it many years ago, probably 5 years ago. I don't remember if I had a jack as I gave it as a gift.

The jack weights every bit of 89 lbs.It took me and the ups driver to carry it into my garage.I have used the jack several times and am most satisfied with it.I handles the front end of (lifts well of the ground with good height, 20 plus inches and pumps easily while lifting to max height) my 2011 Ford F150 4x4 super crew cab.I would recommend it to anyone looking for a floor jack.

Most likely not, the reason is that the maximum lift range of the jack is 11.2 " probably WELL BELOW the minimum clearance of a 4*4 and the maximum lift capacity is only 4000 pounds. Hope that helps !

I can't speak for what someone (the manufacturer? or seller?) else wrote, but, when I bought this, I bought it based on a 300# capacity, however, the person who uses it weighs about 325#. I will warn you, though, that it is very steep and if the person who's going to use it has a larger stomach or chest, it will be difficult for them to climb because they're going to bump up against the top of the ladder.
