Question:

I am looking for a way to install a -leg assembly to the rear of a equipment trailer. I dont necessarily want a jack but was thinking just having a pull-pin with a leg. Is there tubing, round or square that I could do that with? Its to support rear of trailer while loading. One on each side.

We have various jack and stabilizer products that you can consider for addition to the rear of your equipment trailer to support it during loading processes. I linked our main page for such items so you can see all we offer.

If you want a low-cost and lightweight option that does not require permanent installation you might look at the Ultra-Fab Stackable Stabilizers # UF48-979003 (a set of 2) or the 4-piece set # UF48-979004. These offer 17-inches of lift and the 4-piece set weighs only about 7-lbs.

For an installed option a set of scissor jacks # UF48-979002 (bolt-on or weld-on) or weld-on Drop Leg stabilizers # SJ-R208 (sold as a single jack) are available.

On the linked page you can click on the weight capacity you need from the jacks and also on the type of installation you prefer, weld-on or bolt-on, to narrow the items shown to just those with the characteristics you prefer. You might also refer to the linked article on jacks.
