Installing a Swivel Jack on the Frame of a Cargo Trailer

Updated 12/12/2016 | Published 12/11/2016

Question:

What other parts or attachments can I use to be able to mount it to the outside of enclosed trailer cargo? I would like to be able to bolt it the side of the frame.

The etrailer Round Snap Ring Swivel Jack w/ Footplate # TJB-2001S-B is a swivel jack that is designed to be welded on to the frame of a trailer.

If you are looking to use hardware to install a jack rather than welding the jack to the frame, I recommend the Pro Series Round Swivel Jack # PS1400300303. The Pro Series jack is a bolt-on swivel jack that includes the hardware needed to mount to your trailer frame. This jack will fit frames up to 3 x 4 inches. The jack is similar in cost and has a 10 inch lift. However, this jack is a top wind style, meaning the handle is attached at the top of the jack.
