Ah, the lowly tongue jack. This is one device that doesn’t get the respect it deserves.
But it’s no wonder because when it comes to RV products with ridiculous sounding names, this takes the cake! Nevertheless, despite the vaguely creepy nomenclature, a tongue jack is one product you definitely won’t want to leave home without.
What is a Tongue Jack?
A tongue jack is a mechanical device mounted on the front “tongue” of your trailer—the part that connects to your tow vehicle’s hitch. Its main function is to raise and lower the front end of the trailer, making hitching and unhitching easy.
