Can Ultimate A-Frame Trailer Jack 322-RDJ-2K Be Completely Removed from Collar Assembly

Question:

When installed will the jack slide completely out of the collar? I ask because I have a Jeep Wrangler and rear gate clearance is an issue when pulling my utility trailer. Thx

Yes, the Ultimate A-Frame Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K uses a separate trailer-mounted A-frame collar that allows complete removal of the jack tube from the collar. Please note that the jack ships with a black plastic wedge that is held in place with a small retaining bolt. If this bolt and wedge are removed from the jack then the entire jack can be lifted up and out of the collar to give you the clearance you need for opening the rear door on your Jeep.

Please refer to the linked photo that highlights this removable plastic wedge.

Of course, if a caster wheel like # JC-102 or a foot plate like # JF-101BK is installed on the bottom of the tube this too would have to first be removed.
