Recommended Best Trailer Tongue Jack for Maneuvering in Tight Areas and on Gravel or Soft Terrain

Question:

I have a UTV/ATV side x side 12ft trailer, single axel 3000# with approx 250-300# tongue weight. At times I need to unhook and move around in tight areas. Question what would you recomend that would work on gravel or dirt drive. I am thinking a dual wheel jack FXPD15 might work the best but wonder about turning on a soft surface? Recomendation, part number? Thank you...

The best swivel trailer jack for gravel and soft ground is the Trailer Valet # STC-V211.

The Trailer Valet jack will have dual rubber wheels unlike the Fulton Jack # FXPD15L, which has plastic wheels, thus giving it better grip and support through the rougher and softer terrain. The # STC-V211 will also allow you to maneuver more precisely than the Fulton jack, because it has an integrated drive function that makes maneuvering effortless in tight spaces. Another really neat feature the Trailer Valet jack has that the Fulton does not, is the ability to use a drill attachment # TVDA to be able to use a cordless drill to power the drive function of your jack which can come in very handy when on an incline with a heavy trailer.

I have linked the above mentioned products to this page as well as a demonstration video of the Trailer Valet for your convenience.
