Please note: This kit does not include JACKAMAST telescopic legs or Jayco roof bolt upgrade kit.

This kit is designed to use with your existing legs.

Replace the traditional manual winch and cable system in your Jayco camper with the JACKAJAY Universal 12V Electric Roof Lift Kit.

Designed for standard J-Camper roofs without a roof-mounted air conditioner, the JACKAJAY system uses four electric motor drives and flexible push rods to raise and lower the camper roof using 12V power. This removes the need to manually operate the original winch and helps make setting up and packing away your camper easier.

The system is designed for smaller Jayco campers with limited roof-mounted accessories and a roof corner weight of less than 50kg. Each corner is driven independently through the JACKAJAY controller, replacing the original cable-operated lifting arrangement with a purpose-built electric system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the JACKAJAY Lift Kit replace?

The kit is designed to replace the camper’s traditional manual winch and cable-operated roof-lifting setup with a 12V electric motor-driven system.

Q: Does this kit suit a camper with a roof-mounted air conditioner?

No. This standard kit is intended for non-air-conditioned camper roofs with limited roof-mounted accessories. Campers fitted with a roof-mounted air conditioner will generally require the JACKAHD heavy-duty version.

Q: What is the maximum roof weight this kit can lift?

The standard JACKAJAY system is designed for camper roofs with a corner weight of less than 50kg at each corner.

Q: How do I check the roof corner weight?

The roof must be correctly supported and measured at each lifting point using appropriate weighing equipment. Due to the safety risks involved, this should be checked by an experienced caravan or camper repairer.

Q: Does the kit use the existing camper winch?

No. The JACKAJAY system replaces the original winch and cable lifting arrangement with four electric motor drives and flexible push rods.

Q: Are the motor drives included?

Yes. The kit includes four JACKAJAY motor drives, one for each roof corner.

Q: Is the controller included?

Yes. A JACKAJAY controller and the required front, rear and battery wiring harnesses are supplied.

Q: Are the push rods included?

Yes. Four tempered flexible push rods and four mandrel-bent corner guides are included.

Q: Is mounting hardware included?

Yes. A mounting kit is supplied along with the system components.

Q: Are installation instructions included?

Yes. The kit includes both a user guide and an installation guide.

Q: Is this a universal kit?

It is designed as a universal conversion for suitable standard J-Camper roof configurations. However, universal does not mean it will fit every camper without assessment or installation work. Roof weight, camper construction, internal cabinetry and the existing lifting system must be checked before purchase.

Q: Can I install the kit myself?

Installation requires mechanical modification, accurate positioning of the drive components and connection to the camper’s 12V electrical system. Professional installation by an experienced caravan or camper repairer is strongly recommended.

Q: Does it suit larger Jayco, Goldstream or Coromal campers?

Larger campers or roofs weighing more than 50kg at each corner may require the JACKAHD heavy-duty system. Confirm the camper roof weight and construction before ordering.

Q: Will this kit work if solar panels are fitted to the roof?

It may be suitable where the total roof corner weight remains below 50kg and the camper has limited roof accessories. The complete roof weight, including solar panels and all accessories, must be measured before selecting the kit.

Q: Is a battery included?

No. The kit includes the controller, wiring harness and power supply jumper lead, but a suitable camper battery and 12V power system are required.

Q: Does this kit suit pop-top caravans?

This kit is designed for wind-up camper roof systems that originally use a winch and cable arrangement. It is not intended as a general electric lifting system for conventional pop-top caravans.
