Recommended Trailer Jack With Mounting Point Under 2-3/4" Wide
Updated 03/04/2021 | Published 02/28/2021 >
Question:
I am looking for a bolt-on trailer jack with wheel. The trailer frame is 3 by 3. The challenge is that I only have about 2 3/4 between the rear of the coupler and a steel beam. I could not find the front-to-back dimension of the mounting plate for your jacks. The jack must support less than 200 pounds. Can you tell me whether any of your jacks have mounting hardware that requires less than 2 3/4 front-to-back?

Expert Reply:
Since you have only 2-3/4" between the coupler of your trailer and a steel beam I recommend the Bulldog Round, Pipe-Mount Swivel Jack - Sidewind - 10" Lift - 2,000 lbs # BD1541150301 which will only take up about 2-1/2" of space on the frame to mount. This jack has a 2000lb weight capacity and will be plenty since you mentioned it will only need to support around 200lbs.
You will need the Bulldog 2-1/4" Long, Weld-On Jack Pipe Mount for 2-1/2" Female Mount and 5/8" Pin # BD015279 welded to the frame of the trailer for the jack to mount to.
I included videos for both of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
