Guys (and Dani),
My 16' Lund came with a great trailer by the Bear company in Missouri. The trailer is larger than needed for my boat but I love the 14" tires and heavy frame. It provides a smooth ride down the road. It is a heavy well-made beast of a trailer.
The frame of the trailer is higher than most boat trailers I have used (sorry, I don't have that measurement). When I jacked up the trailer in my driveway to put new tires on, I had to use two layers of 2x10's under my floor jack to raise the trailer.
My question regards jacking up a boat trailer on the road: what do you use/recommend?
I prefer not to carry a floor jack in my truck all the time but recognized the stability/safety issues of other jacks.
I include a link below to a jack I am considering to keep in my truck. Your thoughts about it? Other recommendations?
