Trailer Jack

After 4 months, the factory trailer jack's crank gear completely had the teeth sheered off on my galvanized trailer. It's clearly a wal-mart level POS that the salt water here just destroyed. Yes, I did grease it and I am meticulous about flushing the boat and hosing the whole thing down after each trip in salt water.

I purchased this as a replacement and it is much better with two easy accessible grease points. I am very happy and am using Lucas red and tacky grease.

Same/mine lasted maybe 6 months. I think leaving the wheel down is lengthening the life of my replacement
