Does The Location Of The Swivel Jack On The Tongue Or Within The V Matter?

Question:

Looking at your video, I see you have the jack installed inside the V of the trailer frame/arms. I would have thought to put it on the tongue. Does it matter? Thanks very much!

The Round Swivel Marine Jack w/ Wheel - Bolt On - Zinc - Sidewind - 10" Travel - 1,000 lbs # MJ-1206B can absolutely be installed on the tongue part of the trailer. The video you are referring to I have attached and it wasn't added to the tongue because of the other components that are already present there. If you look at our customer photos you can see this jack can be used on the tongue without issue.
