Wil this jack work for a boat trailer? The boat and trailer is less than 2000lbs and I need an emergency jack in case the 13" trailer tire oes flat.

I would think so. 2 ton is 4000 lbs. I carry several pieces of 2x6 wood to add to the height, if needed.

Hi The weight capacity on the box says 6500 lbs per jack. These jacks are not intended to work as a jack for replacing tires.( says on box not for that use) I did note that some people did use these to jack up small trailers to change a tire. My advice would be if you are going to use this to jack the trailer up to change it ? I would make sure I have some blocks or something in place to make sure it holds. A tent trailer weighs maybe 1/3 of the capacity of the load the jack can handle. It is a fair assumption it could lift a small trailer with no problem. But being this was not the exact intended use ? It would be advised to use an extra block for safety. I mean I would do it even if that was the intended as any jack could slip. So carry a jack stand just in case you need to change atire, but I wouldn't operate it as a tire changing jack solo, based on the fact it says it is a leveling jack. But in all theory it should do what you are asking. Hope this helps.

Sure - it'll work great, you just have to apply some pressure to the jack. Let us all know how it works out for you.

This will work with up to a 37" tire. Lift height isn't that relevant since the jack and jack base are designed to go under the axle. Web link to AEV web site. http://www.aev-conversions.com/shop/products/tools-accessories/jk-jack-base

I'm just giving a best guess, but no more than 5,000 lbs. These jacks are for stabilization, not lifting. If used on any type of camper or RV I can't imagine it not being able to handle any load for that application. If using it for something other than RV or camper trailer, you are on your own.

It depends on how high off the ground you front center jack point is. If its 5.12inches or more it will work, if its less than 5.12inches then it will not work. To be honest though, this jack stand is junk. I ordered 1 and the entire jack was slightly twisted. So only 3 of the 4 wheels were touching the ground. So I sent it back and got another one that had the exact same problem. It would be EXTREMELY dangerous to use it if not all 4 wheels are on the ground. I ended up buying OTC 1532 2-Ton Capacity Aluminum Racing Jack, its way nicer and lighter, but it does cost about twice as much...

I read the other reply and glad to report that mine is still working fine after several months. My camper is 27' 6300 lbs and the jack does a good job. It's doesn't look as pretty as some others I've seen, but does the job and didn't cost very much compared to the others. The only thing you will need to do is be sure the jack is grounded to the frame well because the jack does not have a ground strap. If this one quits, i will probably compare others to it and might buy a different one since I don't want to go back to a manual jack! The more expensive jacks may be the same jack with a better looking cover; I don't know. I hope this helps you.

I put these on my boat trailer and seem to be working well.check the load rating ,but with 4 wheels you will be fine.

I'm not an engineer, so I can't directly answer that question. My travel trailer is between 3000 and 3500 # (depending on the load) and the jack lifts and supports the wheel. If I need to lift it several inches it can take a while to crank it by hand, but it does a fine job getting the trailer level. I have recently tried using an impact drill to raise the jack (because this type of drill does not twist your wrist) but there were some problems with that approach. The jack-screw started to show signs of metel shavings which might mean I am near the limit of the jack's weight load. That said - I would buy another one of these if this one breaks. If you get one you might also want to buy a large pizza-delivery bag to store it in. Works perfect.

yes depending on how much weight you have on it. good quality jack and we are very happy with it

You will need to know the width of your front tires and check the specs on the Mo-Jack.Also, there is a 300 lb. weight limit that has to be considered.

Hi, I have a two inch ball on mine which I use to tow my boat. You have to pair it up with a ball with the right shank size as listed on the item. I used a 10000 pound ball.

Probably not, and still have enough height to lift the vehicle off the ground. I have a Dodge Charger, and the first few inches of lift are used up in suspension travel before the tire even starts to leave the ground. Then when I have the tire a couple of inches off the ground, most of the height of the jack is used up. You may have to use a 2x4 under the jack for added lift.

It should work...I use mine on a 4600 lb travel trailer and it works on flat hard surfaces but it's not easy. Keep the tires pumped up!

Stabilizer jacks are not meant to lift your camper, only keep it from rocking. I use 2 of these units (Ultra-Fab Products 48-979006 24" Ultra Scissor Jack) on the front of my Arctic Fox X26, 8,000 pounds, and the jacks are under no strain and work very well.

Works great on my trailer with torsion axles with 6 lug 15" wheels for my 27 foot boat. You just have to be real careful you don't drive off of it as there is not a very big cradle so it's easy to do. It will get jammed in between the wheels.

Depends on how much junk you have in the boat... and how far you're going to haul it. Big motor..? I wouldn't do it, since the weight would hang quite a bit back on the load. The trailer is stout enough, but I'd be sensible about how much it could handle.
