5. If no modifications to the jack brackets are necessary,
skip to Step 9.
6. Dry fit the jack brackets to the chassis of the trailer
frame. The rear jacks must be mounted within the
departure angle, should be aligned with each other from
side to side, mounted 12"-18" behind the rear tires on a
tandem axle trailer or as close to the rear tire, as allowed,
on a tri-axle trailer. The mid jacks should be mounted
approximately 1 foot in front of the front tires. The mid jacks
can be offset from each other side to side by up to 24" in
order to fit the jacks around steps or other obstructions.
The universal mounting brackets are designed to fit a
12" I-Beam with no modifications. However, the frame on
the trailer may not be 12" or there may be obstructions
where the jacks are to be mounted. If that is the case,
measure for the modifications you need to make to the jack
brackets.
