JackEUp

It looks like we'll be transitioning from our current T@g Max to a T@b 320 S.  I should explain that we bought our T@g from our trusted RV dealership several years ago and have had a good working relationship since, so when we found out the 2018's were on sale this weekend we jumped at a chance to buy one already in stock. 

That said, we haven't been able to physically go to the dealership yet, but have a question I though might be better answered here. 

We recently (last fall) bought a JackEUp for our T@g, and haven't used it yet. We haven't had a chance to see how the hitch connects yet--would this jack be something useful for the T@B? 

We'll be checking out the T@b in a few days, but thought someone in the forum might have some insight.

    Hi Barb, depending on your TV, yes, you might want to hold on to it. I have one because I originally towed with a Jeep Wangler 4 door and the swing gate could not open far enough.

    Just installed mine. No more bent jack.  No more struggling to get the jack wheel on or off on uneven ground.

    @BarbaraLynn, can't speak to your question, however, I see this is your first post.  Welcome to the forum, the t@b family and congratulations on your trailer. When you pick it up, post pics. We love photos. And remember, no pics, didn't happen! Unless of course, there are multiple corroborating witnesses.

    Hi Dragonsdofly, and thanks :) I used to belong to the old Little Guys forum before the companies separated but never posted much. We hope to do the paperwork this Tuesday if all goes as it should, and I will most certainly post pics! 

    We love our T@g, but it's time to upsize <3

    Wow, I just looked at a video of the JackEUP. Great looking gadget. I think it would be nice for mounting a rubber wheel when needed. For those who have one is there any bad things about it. I have a 2016 cs-s. Thanks

    There is a TaB specific Removable Jack Plate that has a better fit than the JackeUp.  Check out the NuCamp online store.  We use it with our CSS and minivan.

    I have the one on the allproadventures.com site.  With a Jeep Wrangler it is very hard to get things in and out of the back without removing the jack.  Mine door and spare tire clear the outback tub when opening.  Dosen't clear by much though.
     Removing jack and wheel reduces tongue weight by 16 pounds.
