Clever Cover for FIC Jack (2nd Gen) - Custom Tongue Jack Protection

In this review the Clever Cover for FIC (2nd Generation) Jack is evaluated for trailer and RV owners who want a purpose-built protector that keeps their electric tongue jack, plug and chains guarded from weather and road grime. The single biggest reason to buy is its tailored fit and integrated features that protect common trouble spots: the jack body, the hanging safety chains and the 7-pin plug. The reviewer found it best suited to owners who prioritize practical protection and easy access to controls without removing the cover.

Key Features

• Custom Fit: The cover is made to closely follow the jack shape so it stays secure and reduces exposed seams where water might enter.
• Safety Chain Hooks: Built-in hooks lift safety chains off the ground to prevent them from rusting and getting dirty while parked.
• Electric Plug Pouch: A dedicated pouch protects the disconnected power plug from moisture and road debris when not in use.
• Controls & Light Window: A clear access window allows full use of jack controls and the light without removing the cover, saving time in low-light conditions.
• Cover Lock & Reflective Strips: A locking option helps deter theft and reflective strips improve visibility around the tongue at night.

Who It's For

The Clever Cover is aimed at RV and trailer owners who want a neat, functional solution for routinely exposed components on the tongue, especially those who store trailers outdoors or travel often in wet or dusty conditions. It suits users who value preserved hardware and easy access to the jack functions without fuss.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of tongue jacks that do not match the FIC 2nd generation shape or users seeking a lightweight, minimal cover without chain or plug organization; the product is designed around a specific jack form and accessory layout.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Custom construction provides a snug fit that reduces water and dust intrusion.
• Chain hooks and a plug pouch prevent corrosion and dirt buildup on common exposed items.
• Controls window preserves full functionality without removing the cover, adding convenience.
• Reflective strips increase nighttime visibility and the lock point helps discourage theft.

Cons

• Durability reports are mixed; some users report excellent longevity while others experienced seam issues over time.
• Designed for a specific jack generation, so fit is not universal for every tongue jack model.
