The hole in the bracket of the Fulton 1200 lb Snap Ring Swivel Jack # FTJ12000101 is 2.55 inches in diameter to accommodate the 2-1/2 inch diameter flange on the trailer mounted bracket that the snap ring attaches to. The 2-1/2 inch diameter flange on the trailer bracket passes through the 2.55 inch diameter hole in the bracket on the jack.

The holes that the retaining swivel pin passes through are 3 inches apart on center.

I have produced a photo of the snap ring bracket included with the above mentioned jack, complete with dimensions. In order for the bracket that is existing on your trailer to work with this jack, the dimensions will need to be identical.
