Bolt On Trailer Jack that is Best for Low Clearance Below Trailer Frame

Question

Question:

I have a device Cyclone Rake that I pull behind a lawn tractor. It uses a simple pin connection so doesnt have to clear a hitch ball. The problem is clearance haviing only about 8 from the bottom of the rectangular 2 x 3 tubing that forms the tow bar to the ground. Does anybody make a clamp on jack with less than 8 min length? Any other ideas for this?

Hey Charles, the Ultimate Trailer Jack part # UJ44FR would be your best option. This allows you to set the mounting bracket height relative to the jack wheel which makes it really great for low clearance situations like what you have now.

Hey Chris, the Bulldog jack part #BD190758 would do decently in a saltwater environment but honestly it's not going to last forever. The zinc coating and the powdercoat will eventually allow the steel underneath to corrode. Now if you were to be…

Hey Tyler! You can add the SnapPad! If you already have the etrailer Sidewind Trailer Jack - Swivel Bolt - 2K #e35YV, you can add the SnapPad using #SN47FR. That is a nice upgrade if you park on gravel, grass, dirt, or softer campsites and want a…

Yes Brad, that absolutely makes sense. There’s a good chance you can reuse the Dutton-Lainson welded swivel mount already on your Boatmate trailer. The Dutton-Lainson #DL22339 uses a standard swivel-mount design, I attached a photo of the mounting…

Hey Caleb! For a personal watercraft trailer, the etrailer Sidewind Aluminum Jack with Wheel - Swivel Bolt - 1.5K #e95YV is the one I’d use. It is aluminum with stainless steel hardware, so it makes sense for a trailer that sees a lot of ramp use.…

Hi Donny; after looking at several videos of the trailer it does appear to have a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern with ST225/75R15 tires. The Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15 Radial Tire w/ 15" Eagle Aluminum Wheel #GY97QB will be a direct fit.
