Expert Reply:

The Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC358590 is designed to help support/stabilize a trailer, but it isn't meant to completely support the weight of the trailer so we'll need to use some other forms of support so you can install the Lippert AP Kit # LC52SV.

If you don't already have jacks or jack stands designed to hold the weight of your trailer then I recommend checking out the Powerbuilt Unijack # ALL620470 which combines the power of a jack and the safety of a jack stand and is rated for 4,000 lbs so 2 of these on one side of your trailer gives you 8,000 lbs which will be more than enough for any trailer the Ground Control 3.0 is installed on.
