Trailer tongue jack mod

[Mopar1973Man]

This is a future mod I'd like to do when spare fund are available.

 

I'm really getting tired of packing along all kinds of lumber and blocks for the trailer tongues. I've seen some industrial trailers with a handy drop foot then you don't need to find a round of firewood or large wood block to place under the jack to unhitch. Seem like I'm going through wood blocks fast because they are left on the ground to absorb moisture and rot. So I found a handy trailer tongue jack that will lift my RV to my BigTex without a wood block on the ground.

Thank you.....  I've been looking for a jack just like this.  Getting tired of replacing bent jacks from dragging the ground on approaches.

Like currently you can see the RV and the big block of wood I need to use to unhitch the RV. Also you'll see I've got to extend the jack a long ways. Then depending on where I go that block might be too big. Now I got to carry a assortment of different size blocks. What a PITA!
