Hey Joe, welcome back! Do you happen to have a picture of the jack setup you have now that I could see? Our electric jacks are designed to attach to an a-frame mount like the part # e83KV that you referenced but it sounds like you might have something more heavy duty and would need instead something like the part # e33VV which can attach to a crossbeam like your current jack.

@JoeO I just looked at the pictures. That's a tough location to have a powered jack attach to. Especially since it looks like you have weight distribution brackets as well. Only thing I could think of would be to cut a hole and mounting holes in the platform section behind your channel on your coupler so that you could install a Phoenix trailer jack part # UF38-944055.

@JamesonC OK, then my plan is to cut the existing jack off the trailer and weld a plate across that area with a 2.3 inch hole in it so I can mount a jack. Am I going to want a plate on the bottom of the 6 inch channel also for added stability?
