When these types of jacks fail, they often just need to be replaced. You may be able to find a part if you were able to dismantle it and figure out the issue, but that part may not even be available as a replacement.

Since your existing jack isn't working for you, I recommend replacing the jack. This does entail having the old jack cut off and welding a new jack to your trailer. The trailer jack I'd suggest would meet your needs is the Square Direct Weld Jack - Drop Leg w/ Spring Return - Sidewind - 12-3/8" Travel - 10K, # TJD-12000SP-F2. The mount will have to be custom for your particular trailer.
