Has anyone replaced the scissors jack on a late 90s vintage COBRA trailer with a COBRA Hydraulic Jack. If so I would appreciate it if you would share any details about the switch.
Thanks,

Hi Bill,
Not what you asked, but this is R.A.S. after all...
If the reason you are replacing is frustration with the cheap scissors jack and ungainly handle, consider a ratchet-driven scissors jack like this one.

I got one of these in a spare tire kit for my tow vehicle, and it's a pretty slick piece of kit. It still suffers from the geometry issue inherent with the scissors design, but this one is very easy to to crank and could easily be made with a clip to hold the handle on the frame of the ramp.
Otherwise, I'd just write Spindelberger. They're super responsive and helpful and deal just fine in English.
