Trailer Jack Recommendation for a Trailer with a 2 x 1-1/2 Inch Frame

Question:
Will this jack attach to a 2X1.5 in. tongue? Do you have any that do? A wheel is a must, a swing-up wheel would be great.

I went out to the warehouse to measure a Bulldog Rack-and-Gear Jack, # BD162300. The smallest trailer frame it could mount to is 1-3/4 inches square so it will not fit on a 2 x 1-1/2 inch frame.
I recommend a Bulldog Rack-and-Gear Jack consisting of part # BD018161 and # BD018006 . This jack has an L-shaped mount that will need to be welded to the bottom of the trailer frame. The trailer frame size you have will not matter for this jack. This is the best option I could find for you. It does not swing up but it does retract to a mere 6-1/2 inches below the bracket.
