Today, we're going to be taking a look at the rebuild process for the etrailer, or Ram brand 1,000-pound lift capacity marine jacks. Now, there are a couple of different components for the jack that we have available here at etrailer, just depending on what your needs are. Here, we've got part number MJ-1000B-HD. That's going to be the handle and the handle pin. The cap replacement is going to be part number MJ-1000B-CP. We've got the internal bearing.

This is what's going to reduce the friction between the screw and the top plate on the jack. We'll show you how that goes. This is part number MJ-1000B-BR. Then, we've got our gear kit. Now, our gear kit's going to have a side gear and a base gear.

We've got a replacement handle pin, the base gear pin, and the keeper ring that's going to go around that handle gear to keep our pin in place. Now, for the gear kit, that's going to be part number MJ-1000B-GR. Now, we'll start by removing the cap, which we'll have to remove this little Phillips screw that's here on the side. We'll pull out on this upper edge, then lift up. You can see there's a little tab that goes in that hole there. If you're just replacing your cap, if the jack's working fine, but you want to keep it working that way, we'll just pop that back on, put your screw back in place, and you're job's going to be done.

Now, we're going a few steps further here. You'll see inside the jack, there's going to be a lot of grease and stuff in there. I want to get that cleaned out. At least we'll be able to see our pin location there. What you're looking for to find your handle pin.

It's going to be that little indention, this little half-round indention. There's going to be one on each side. Next is going to be the removal of that snap ring. It fits right in that groove, all the way around our handle gear. It's easier to see here rather than on the jack, but I just want to start at one end and pop it over to the back side, and then work around. It's going to then be between the outer housing of the jack and the gear. You see there's where the end of it is, so we try to get our pick in there. You could also use a small screwdriver, then we'll lift out on that, enough to get it, like we said, up on that back side. We should be able to turn our handle. We pop that off. We'll see now, it's just going to hang out there a minute while we get our pin out. Once we get that grease out of the way, you'll see the end of our pin is right there. We're going to take a 5/32 punch and drive that out toward the bottom. Now, once your pin's fully through, you'll see your handle be where it will float, so now we just want to lift up on that. If we're just doing a handle replacement, we'll slide that back in. We'll put out new pin in. We'll be set, but again, we're going to show you how to rebuild the entire thing here. There's going to be a spacer right here. Pull that out. This gear is kind of sandwiched in there, so we'll lower that down, set it aside. The clip, you see it fell out with this. There's our little spring clip. Then, these are bushings, with a washer on it, where these bushings fit up into those square holes. There's going to be one on each side there. We'll get that set over here to the side. Now, for our base gear, it's just a matter of lifting straight up on that. That's going to come out, all this grease. You'll see below that, there's going to be a little floating pin. You're going to lift upward on that. Then we should be able to bring that out of the very small hole right here, on top of the jack. Then, you also see a thin little washer on the bottom here. Now, these washers are not
