Right or wrong, when I did mine I left the trailer hooked to the tow vehicle and chocked the tow vehicle wheels well. This prevented any possible tongue jack failure or the trailer shifting around.
I had to borrow my neighbors floor jack as mine was too short.
My jack stands were too short also so I laid down some 4 x 4 lumber flat on the ground and placed the jack stands on top of the lumber.I figured this was safer than trying to balance a spacer between the stand and the frame.
I also only jacked one side at a time, I didn't try to lift the entire trailer into the air.
