TWQ 180 DL-B Less Crank (800075)

The REESE TWQ 180 DL-B Less Crank trailer jack delivers 12,000 pounds of lifting capacity in a heavy-duty topwind manual design, engineered for serious towing operations where reliability and load-handling performance are non-negotiable. This trailer jack is built around proven bulldog-style mechanics and rated for the demanding demands of recreational and commercial trailer deployment across varied terrain and weather conditions.

Specified at 12.5 inches of vertical travel, the TWQ 180 accommodates standard coupler heights and hitch configurations across most trailer classes. The topwind crank mechanism provides mechanical advantage without requiring power or pneumatic support, ensuring the jack remains functional in field conditions where electrical or hydraulic backup is unavailable. Gray paint finish protects the steel construction against surface corrosion, though operators in salt-spray or high-moisture environments should plan for periodic maintenance. At 59.36 pounds, this jack is substantial enough to handle rated loads without flex or play, yet portable enough for single-operator deployment during hitching and recovery operations.

This unit is specified for trailer owners, recovery operators, and fleet maintenance teams who require a primary or backup jack rated to 12,000 pounds with manual-crank simplicity. The bulldog design is industry-standard for off-road recovery, farm equipment transport, boat launch operations, and any scenario where trailer load capacity demands a dedicated, load-rated mechanical jack. Manual operation means zero dependency on external power sources—a critical advantage in remote staging areas, backup situations, or extended field operations.

Trailer jacks rated above 10,000 pounds occupy a specific tier of the market—they are engineered for vehicles and cargo that demand precision load management. The REESE TWQ 180 positions itself as a proven, unsexy workhorse in that category, prioritizing mechanical reliability and rated capacity over novelty or integrated electronics. Field operators value this straightforward specification because it translates directly to predictable, repeatable performance across seasons and locations.
