Folded Jack Length of the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack
Published 12/15/2022 >
Question:
I have a limited space between where the Jack will be mounted and the front of my trailer. Whats the shortest distance possible between the center of the mount and the bottom of the wheels when folded up for travelling?

Expert Reply:
When retracted the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack item # ARK54FR is 29" long from the top of the jack to the bottom of the wheels. From the bottom of the wheel to the center pivot point where the bracket attaches is 14". When folded up this hitch can still slide forward and backwards on the mounting bracket to accommodate limited space.
I have attached a diagram I made below plus linked a review video that will go over the functions.
