Trailer Jack To Support 6X12 Trailer Weighing 2,500 Plus Pounds  

Updated 09/13/2022 | Published 09/12/2022

Question:

I have a 6X12 single axle trailer. Weight capacity is 2100 lbs. But maybe get to 2500 lbs. every once in a while. You know, people and their have to do it. So would this jack be able to lift a loaded trailer up from the side behind the wheel to change a flat tire. Would that be too much stress on the crank gears? I like this idea just dont want to destroy the gears. I know there are other options for a jack. Just looking into this.

Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, The Square Pipe Mount Swivel Jack w Footplate # TJDP-7000S-B would be able to lift your trailer from the side to change a flat tire.

The jack has a 7,000 pound lift capacity and has a 8,000 pound support capacity. The jack has a weld-on installation.
