Question:

I have a EZ loader boat trailer that had a Fulton trailer Jack attached at the factory. That jack went bad on a trip and was replaced with a different jack but only had a flat plate in place of a wheel. I would like to replace the jack with a trailer jack with a wheel but the welded mounting plate was modified to support a pin that is 1/2 in. All the Fulton jacks I see advertised have only a 3/8 in pin. Do you have a boat trailer jack that is held on with a C clip and has a 1/2 in pin?

Hello John. After looking thru all of the snap-ring jacks we carry, I am sorry to say that we do not offer anything with a wheel that will also use a 1/2" pin. We do have a jack with a wheel and a snap ring that uses a 3/8" pin, the Fulton # FTJ120W0301. We also have one snap ring jack that does use a 1/2" pin, part # TJB-2001-Z, but as lock would have it, this jack has a welded foot plate instead of a wheel.

I know neither of these options fit your description exactly, but these will be the closest options we can offer.

Jesse Thanks for the reply, I did look at the FTJ120W301 video and it looks like it will work as long as I weld the new plate to the trailer tung. I will go ahead and order that jack. Thanks for your help. John Kearns

@John Yes! If you weld a new plate to the tongue you can use really any jack regardless of pin size so the Fulton # FTJ120W0301 is a great choice.
