Inquiry about jacks

We are looking for an electric jack that also has a manual crank that can be used in an emergency. We've seen several brands and each touts to be the best. I'd appreciate comments and or suggestions as to what brand(s) to look at and those to avoid. We have a 1978 25 foot Caravanner Land Yacht.
Thank you for your time.

I installed Camping World's best on my former SOB and it was excellent. It came with an adapter that allowed you to use a ratchet to raise and lower in case of no power.

if you will do a search on the forum, there has been several previous threads that give brand names and tell what Airstream currently uses. My International came with a power jack and I am very pleased with it.

What Airstream uses

I just checked my parts catalog. My jack is a "Barker Hi-Power 3000". made in Battle Creek, MI, Airstream part number 400961. Barkers number is 616-965-2371. The jack comes with a crank for power-off situations.

I think Camping World stocks this jack.
