Options for stabilizer jacks for an overland teardrop style trailer!

[lacofdfireman]

Building an overland style teardrop trailer and wondering what my options would be so I don’t lose ground clearance? I have 20” from the bottom of my frame to the ground when level. I’d like something that attaches to the trailer and stows easily. The rear of my trailer is dove tailed so that limits some types of jacks. What’s the best route to go?

One option that I am considering is the side winder weld on jacks.
Weld on the mount and remove the actual jack when traveling. Or turn it side ways.

Ya I think that’s the style I wanna go with. Thanks

Tip for you if the crank handle bothers you. You can cut the crank off at the first bend and use a cordless drill to raise and lower.

I just use a hydraulic jack and some wood blocks, things I carry anyway

I like the BAL c style Jack's. Tuck up low and are pretty solid when down. I have one on each corner, makes working on wheels and tires easy, along with leveling. No worries about storing them, they're always there. My trailer frame is 19" from the ground.

I went with weld ons. It’s great to be able to just stow them when not in use.

My first trailer got some of these fold away ones. They were ok, folded away to keep from impacting ground clearance.




Current trailer has some removable ones. Weld on a 2" base tube and they can either be stored 90 degrees (depending on where you mount the mounts) or removed and stored elsewhere for transport. These are by far my preferred method.

We have these on our trailers...
