Trailer tongue jack replacement

[Skycop]

So we have sold our 64 Globetrotter due to a growing family and purchased a 1959 Streamline trailer. The other day my brother in law was moving the trailer and broke the manual tongue jack for the trailer. The only problem is that when I started looking for a replacement (electric or otherwise), I haven't been able to find anything that would fit with the bolt pattern to mate the jack to the trailer.

All of the jacks I have found have a 3 hole mounting system with a circular tube. Ours has a 4 hole mounting system with a non-circular tube. I have attached a photo, and if anyone would be able to steer me in the right direction I would be very much in your debt!

Did you look at the underside? Maybe the PO replaced the original jack with the one you now have the original bolt pattern is still there.

I will pull it and see what I can come up with.

So I am trying to pull the jack. The pad/foot on the jack is a booger to get off. From what I can tell, this thing comes with a 4 hole bolt pattern on the trailer. Any help would be appreciated and I am back to getting the jack removed.

A good machine shop can probably fabricate and weld a three hole plate to your trailer tongue that will match the three hole plate on the jack

I did manage to get everything off and yes, it is a 4 bolt pattern jack. Weird, but I will be doing some research on my own, but if anyone else has experienced this, I would appreciate any input.

Buy a 3 hole jack, open up the center hole if needed. Set the new jack into the enlarged center hole and mark & drill the tongue to match the new 3 hole jack. Done!
