Power jack for Geo Pro/E-Pro with bike rack?

My E-Pro 19FBS has a bike rack on the front end. I removed the actually bike rack but still have the support structure.

I want (need) to upgrade to a power jack. I've searched through the forums topics and learned much. However, I still have questions.

I looked at the Husky HB4500 4500 lbs. Brute Power Jack but wonder if the power cord attachment on the back would rub up against the propane tank covers. I also wonder which jacks would fit between the bike support frame.

I can see myself upgrading to a TT under 30 ft in the future (closer to now than what my DW thinks the "future" refers to). The new jack would probably be moved over to the new TT.

Any advice or suggestions?

A 4500 lb jack is serious overkill for your rig. It appears the bike rack is held in place by the trailer jack. You may have to modify the bike rack when mounting a power jack. Why not check with the Mfg and get the jack that is normally ordered with that trailer.

A new 30 ft TT will probably come with a power jack.
