    Opps hit the send button too soon.

    No matter what jack you choose make sure the shaft fits the hole in the A frame.

    There are two sizes of shafts, I found that out the hard way, bought a replacement in an emergency. Get back to trailer to install and find the shaft on the jack is smaller than the A frame hole. Made for a wobbly lift until I got home and put a spacer in to fill the gap.
