Correct Weight Rating For A-Frame Trailer Jack On 6700lb Trailer
Question:

asked by: Damian H
Expert Reply:
An A-Frame jack only needs to be rated high enough to support and lift the tongue weight of your trailer.
Since your trailer weighs 6700lbs and tongue weight is typically 10-15% of the trailer weight you should have between 670-1005lbs tongue weight.
With that figure in mind the Pro Series Round, A-Frame Jack - Topwind - 14" Lift - 2,000 lbs # PSEA20000103 you were looking at would be perfect if you are wanting a manual jack, or the # EJ-3520-WBX with a 3500lb rating would be a perfect option if you would rather have an electric jack.
Both use the industry standard 3" mounting pattern so they will fit in the mounting hole of your A-frame trailer.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
