VIP 3000 Power Jack

[Geronimo John]

My the two weather covers that protect Jack light switch and the Up/Down Toggle) have worn out. 

Do we know of a source and P/N for them?  I did not find any mention of them via search or Oliver University.

Thanks!

You can probably find a replacement toggle boot at west marine, amazon, or any marine supply. Most of them are pretty similar.

I don't know what brand the new trailers use. You could start here:

What SeaDawg said. I thought you meant cover for the entire thing. 

[Geronimo John]

I thank you all for the posts.  I had not thought of the toggle switch covers as being readily available.  I go by West Marine just about every day and will pick up  a couple. 

Mike:  Thanks for the lead on the Explore Land Waterproof Tongue Jack Cover.  For less than $10, it is a great find.  I have added it to my Amazon April Purchase List!

You guys ROCK!

Does that stay in place OK at highway speeds when it is gusty? There are some other choices that are more fitted.

Yes, it stays on. We’ve been through some pretty gusty winds in west Texas. It has a drawstring and a Velcro strap below that.

I think I'll just cheap out and use a gallon freezer bag.

Plus a rubber band to keep it in place! 😜

Now that’s repurposing! 😄

For those that are "thinking about" this cover for the front jack I would add that I have used one since Twist was new.  I virtually never take it off since the "up and down" switch is easy to find with the cover on.  Because of this, my front jack looks new.  However, if you decide to simply leave the cover on, be sure that you do not turn on that little light that is on the jack by mistake.

I thought the gallon freezer bags were clear....
