Expert Reply:

Our strongest landing gear jack that you could potentially use on your 20 foot trailer would be the Bulldog 2-Speed Tandem Landing Gear Set # BD500153. This jack has 45,000 lbs of lifting capacity and can handle 90,000 lbs of static weight.

If you are tired of breaking jacks and want to be done with the hassle of having new jacks welded on I would recommend the # BD500153.
