Recommendation for a Trailer Tongue Jack for a Roll-a-Home Mini Tent Trailer

Question:

I own a Roll-a-Home mini tent trailer. It is designed to be pulled by a motorcycle but I pull it with my Toyota Tacoma pick-up. I would like to find a swivel trailer tongue jack to use on it. The problem is finding one that collapses short enough when swiveled to fit between the pickup and storage box on the tongue. At the very most this would be about 14. What is the shortest swivel jack you have that can bolt on to a square tongue? This is an extremely light-weight application. Tongue weight is about 50 lbs and trailer weight is about 500 lbs.

It sounds like the Fulton F2 Swing-Up, Wide-Track Trailer Jack, item # F1413040134, would be a good choice for your trailer. It features and adjustable mounting plate that can be moved to any point in the track on the backside of the jack, and will mount to 3x3 and 3x4 trailer frames.

The center of the swivel mount will be 12-1/4 inches from the bottom of the wheel when the bracket is adjusted to its lowest height, and 7 inches from the top of the jack when adjusted to its highest height. Depending on the size and design of your tent trailer frame and storage box location this jack may work for you.
