Jack crank extension

[Townesw]

I hope this isn't a repost. The crank to manually operate the front jack is too short to use with the propane tank cover in place.

 

 

A regular 3/8 inch drive ratchet extension turned around works as an extension for the manual crank.

 

 

A 6 inch extension will work but a longer one will allow the crank to clear the propane cover.

Thanks!  I never even thought to check and hope that I never need to actually use that crank!

I also removed that spring pin in the hole at the top of the crank and cleaned up the edges of the hole with a file.

 

 

That spring pin would be hard on your hand if you had to use that manual crank.

 

Edit: Don’t remove that spring pin. It’s there for a reason.

I just remove the propane cover, it's not a big deal. We had a bad ground on the front jack...
