Hey Bruce! I'm not too sure what you're looking for, but I see that you were looking at trailer jack's so I'll assume that's what you're referring to.

If this is the case, the etrailer Boat Trailer Jack w/ 2 Wheels # MJ-1500B-DWL would be a great choice! This jack is will fit frames 2" to 4" wide, has a 1.5k lift capacity, and is a bolt-on side mount, with a sidewind operation.

If it was something different you were referring to, please let me know in the comments and I'd be happy to help!
