Helpful Expert Reply:

Most of the powered trailer jacks we offer are designed to mount in the center of the a-frame which is inaccessible, as shown in the photo you provided (thanks for the photo, by the way!)

The Fulton # F141401 would be the exception. The jack has a 2500 lb lift capacity which is plenty and will fit trailer A-frame members that are between 3 and 5 inches, so it would work perfectly for you.

I've linked to an install/demonstration video for the powered trailer jack I recommended.
