I am happy to point you in the right direction. According to the online owners manual for a 2004 Ranger Trailer CF5000 Z20 boat trailer, it uses a 1200 lb Fulton Swing Jack. They do not mention any other specs, but from what I can see, they use a snap ring mount, very similar to the Fulton Round, Snap-Ring Swivel Marine Jack # FTJ120W0301. This should match the current snap ring, if there is already one welded to the tongue.

If not, we have the # FXP10 which has a bolt-on bracket for frames up to 3" wide and 5' tall. Either of these will be a very easy swap out, and will have sufficient capacity for your trailer. The # FXP10 does have a retracted height of 14-1/2", so you will want to confirm that this will be sized correctly compared to the current jack.

You can take a look at the product listing below to see our current pricing. You can add to cart and enter your shipping info to see shipping rates and sales tax.
