Default What is the best point to jack up a Cobra Trailer ?

I think you should do a practice run on your trailer, changing the wheel, at home before heading out on the open road. On the side of the interstate, with traffic whizzing by a 80 mph is no place to find out your jack doesn't work and your lug wrench is the wrong size.
Or your spare doesn't fit anymore due to a axle change.


Good advice. And remember that a jack that slips neatly under the trailer when the wheel is on the hub may not fit at all if the tire is flat or essentially missing (experience with both).
