For your 10,000 lb car hauler trailer, I recommend the Round A-Frame Trailer Jack - Sidewind - 15-5/8" Travel - 5,000 lbs # TJA-5000S-B for a manual jack, with footplate # JF-99. The majority of the weight of your trailer will be on your axles and this will definitely support the tongue weight without issue.

If you want an electric jack, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 23" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Black # JET-5000. Either of these will serve you well, so it comes down to preference. I've attached videos to assist.

Answer 5

A trailer jack only lifts part of the weight of the trailer and not the whole 10,000 pounds of your trailer. A 10K trailer would have a tongue weight of around 1,000 to 1,500 pounds. But the higher the capacity of the jack the easier it is for the…

The mounting bolt pattern of the Buyers Products A-Frame Jack #3370091265 is 3" all the way around. The mounting holes are elongated though so if you have a slightly larger/smaller distance it should still work out.
