Larry, Thanks for your input. I'm definitely considering your idea, especially since it's so cheap. The problem with the scissor jacks is that it supports the frame in a parallelogram shape. That shape is inherently prone to swinging around. The product your describing will be a better post, but it'll still just be still a single post holding the trailer frame in only one position. I have to believe that the trailer will be more rigid with the bars holding the trailer in another connection point in that I'm sure the frame shown here is better with the diagonals than without.
