Jack for trailer to change tires?
Is it normal for the trailer to not come with a jack or any way to get the tires off?

On the road I prefer using an Andersen Rapid Jack or something similar instead of a bottle jack under an axle. Sometimes you can't get off the highway very far and large trucks going by are liable to blow your TT right off the bottle jack.
People with spread axle trailers often say units like the Rapid Jack or the Trailer Aid won't work. Due to the distance between the axles, the flat tire will remain on the ground or the axle will not raise high enough to allow the spare to be put on. A good ole bottle jack would work on these.
If a trailer has been blown off the bottle jack by a passing semi then that person need to seriously rethink their tire changing and lifting techniques.
