When replacing your landing gear motor like # LC241795, the trailer can be supported by your landing gear legs. You do not need a second set of jacks or jack stands. With the motor removed, the gear box will not turn to allow the legs to drop.

I have included a video that shows the installation process for a similar landing gear motor.
