Can Pro Series Trailer Jack - PS1401420303 be Mounted at the Back of a Trailer for Support
Question:
Is this jack only intended to stabilize the rear of the trailer when its unhooked from a vehicle or can it also be used to help minimize the rear sag of a trailer when loading equipment onto the trailer while its hooked up to a vehicle? My trailer came with slide in ramps and Im looking for something to help support the rear when loading/unloading my tractor other than chunks of timber.

You could put Pro Series Round, Pipe-Mount Swivel Jack # PS1401420303 anywhere that it will fit including at the rear of the trailer to help with support.
Usually people use scissor jacks such as # UF48-979031 for this type of application though. The neat thing about these jacks is you can add adapter # UF48-979005 and raise and lower the scissor jacks using an electric drill. That will save you a lot of time and energy.
