In order to bolt the Pro Series Snap-Ring Swivel Marine Jack, # PSEJ10000101, to an L-shaped trailer frame, I recommend having some steel plates welded to the trailer frame in order to make it a box frame in the location where you want to install the jack. This will provide the support the jack needs to be properly installed. Any welding should be done by a qualified professional welder.
Another option would be to use a Round, Pipe-Mount Swivel-Style Jack, # DL22685. This is a pipe mount swivel jack that comes with the pipe it would need to mount to. The pipe would have to be welded by a professional welder to the trailer frame in the location you want to mount the jack.
