The easiest way is to just take the pin out of the hitch prior to jacking it up I guarantee you that as you jack the truck up it will come right off the ball.
Don't thank me for this tid bit. Someone here passed it on to me about five years ago

I always unlock the hitch before jacking it up and I still find it gets stuck and I have to bounce on the truck to get it off.
I think Nancil means to take the receiver pin out of the draw bar while jacking the trailer so the bar will move and release tension on the coupler.
Yes, that is exactly what I meant.
I am sorry my wording was wrong
