Trailer Jack Stuck.............
 
Hey everyone, new fish here! I would like to know if anyone has ever had a problem with their trailer jack? I can't for the life of me make it crank down more then two turns. Any idea what I can do to fix this? Thanks!

it happened to me, i cut it off and welded on a new one. i saw a cat with 2 the other day, if one seizes he takes off the foot and uses the other one.

Then I would have to have the trailer on my hitch correct? Sorry if it's a dumb question, but I do get it. I can't take the current jack off with all the weight on it?
