jenandjon Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 I'm wondering what adapter I need to make to plug in my trailer. Then I see this jackalopee gizmo. Whats this all about?

Nigel Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 Jackalopee is the converter to use. I suggest mounting it inside one of the storage boxes in your cab. It has room inside for your electric brake wiring as well. That keeps all your wiring connections out of the elements. I was still commercial when I bought mine but I was pulling a trailer with electric brakes and combined stop turn lamps so I cut a green trailer cord plugged it in the commercial socket wired the other end into the Jackolopee and wired the rv type socket to the output. That way I still have the commercial plug to use if I ever need it. Very simple install. Here is a link to the resource guilds on tail light converters. http://www.hhrvresource.com/node/203 Nigel 2006 Volvo VNL 430, 2006 smart cabrio cdi, 2000 Triple E Topaz 30' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennWest Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 I use the commercial plug also. Just rewire it for the RV and change plug on cord. Like it lot better.
