We don't offer a caster wheel for the etrailer # MJSQ-2500B 2500 lb capacity jack you mentioned, mainly because the casters will limit the capacity of the jack because the capacity of the caster wheels typically top out at 1000-1200 lbs.

What's the tongue weight of your trailer? If it's below 1000 lbs, you can use a trailer dolly like the Trailer Valet, part # TVXL2 for a 2 inch trailer ball or # TVXL25 for a 2-5/16 inch ball. These trailer dollies are meant for use on a flat surface that's hard packed or paved.

Another option that works well for maneuvering a trailer into a tight spot is to use a front mounted receiver for your tow vehicle. Front mounted receivers are available for many full sized trucks and SUV's and would allow you to place your trailer right where you want it. If you have some interest in that option, reply with the year, make and model of your tow vehicle and I'd be happy to check on the availability of a front mounted receiver for your vehicle.
