Recommended Stabilizers for Tandem Axle Snowmobile Trailer Storage
Question:
Hello, I have a tandem axel, in-line, 19 ft snowmobile trailer that I will need to store. Can you recommend specific lifts/stabilizers for the trailer? I will be storing 2 snowmobiles in the trailer. Trailer empty weight is about 3000 lbs.

Expert Reply:
If you want to stabilize the weight when stored, then I recommend the Scissor Stabilizer Jacks w/ Handle - 18-3/4" Lift - 5,000 lbs - Qty 2 # TJSCHD-24 and getting 2 sets for front and back of each side.
If you want to get the trailer off the ground to keep weight off your tires, then I recommend the 2-Ton Jack Stands - Qty 2 # PTW41021 and getting 2 sets so you can relieve the weight from the tandem axles and get the tires off the ground. I recommend using your trailer jack stand on the tongue of the trailer and then placing one jack stand on either side of the tandem axles to evenly carry the weight on your frame.
