You must have some weird trailer. Other than the ones with floating tongue, any of the hundreds, if not thousands of trailers I have been around, jack the front up, the rear goes down. When pivot on the suspension, there is no force to flex the frame.
You are correct (if you put your trailer into a no gravity zone (like outer space). You are my first alien contact on RV.Net.
If you would bring your trailer here on earth, gravity does do its bending thing, if you like it or not. In fact EVERYTHING on earth is bent (past tense), sometimes just bent into a straight line (I know, this will bend (present tense) your brain; double pun intended (yes, gravity bends even the stiffes brain on earth!).
