Expert Reply:
The Ultimate Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K is our only A-Frame mounted tongue jack that we currently carry that will has a height of less than 9" above the trailer tongue. This jack has 7 height settings allowing for up to 12" of lift and will allow you to place it where it will not contact your tailgate when towing your trailer.
A better option may be to use an Extended Ball Mount # BH20. This particular ball mount is 13-1/4" long from the center of the receiver pin hole to center of the ball mount. This is roughly 5" longer than most ball mounts and may give you the clearance you are needing to use your tailgate.
We also have the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4600 that is 6" longer than standard weight distribution drop shanks. This will fit most all weight distribution systems that use 3/4" bolt hole 1-1/4" on center.
