The Ram Removable Caster Assembly, # JC-101, is a swiveling caster when attached to the jack.

The caster assembly uses a nylon bushing at the swivel point between the connected mounting tube and the wheel assembly.

To add a wheel with the Round A-Frame Trailer Jack #TJA-5000S-B all you need is the wheel caster #JC-101. I would recommend supporting the tongue of the trailer with a floor jack before taking apart anything internal of the jack.
