Recommended Scissor Jack for Boat Trailer
Question:
Hello Do you offer a scissor style jack similar to this one that is marinized for use aluminum/stainless etc on a boat trailer? This would be to reduce weight on the tires during storage and to stabilize the trailer when the boat was on so it doesnt tip backwards Thanks

We do have a nice selection of scissor jacks available like the Ram # TJSC-24 that you referenced, however none of them feature an aluminum or stainless steel construction. These scissor jacks do have a black powder coated finish though that will do a really nice job of resisting corrosion. They have a weight capacity of 2,500 pounds and will work well for your application to add stability to your parked trailer.
Another potential option is the Ultra-Fab Stackable Stabilizers # UF48-979004. These are unique jacks that can extend from 11 inches to 17 inches to support your trailer. Each stabilizer has a weight capacity of 6,000 pounds and feature a die-cast aluminum construction that is rustproof. They have a stackable design that makes for easy storage.
I have attached a short video demonstration on these stabilizers so you can see exactly how they work.
