Recommended Trailer Jack for Use Moving Chicken Tractor on Sandy Soil
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
Is it possible to mount a 10inch solid rubber wheel to this jack? I want to be able to raise and move a 8foot by 10foot chicken tractor with a house on the back. It weighs about 400 lbs. I expect Ill need to use four jacks one on each corner. I am moving it on sandy sail so I want a larger tire width.

The Fulton F2 Swing-Up, Wide-Track Trailer Jack, 8" Single Wheel, Sidewind, Bolt-On - 1,600 lbs # F1413040134 cannot take a solid 10-inch rubber wheel, but I do understand your interest in this idea since you need to move your chicken tractor on sandy soil where its 8-inch plastic wheels might sink into the ground. A jack with dual wheels will definitely be better for you, and the pneumatic tires on the Trailer Valet 5X Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover # STC-V211 will be the best option for traction on a sandy surface.
This 2-speed jack does cost more than a standard trailer jack but it allows you to control both speed and direction when moving the structure. One of these combined with three other standard swivel jacks like the Fulton might do it for you. The trailer Valet will fit on frames up to 2-3/4-inches wide and 6-inches tall. Please refer to the linked video for more on the Valet.
