Komet Trailer ramp Lever Jack
A while back, I made a lever-type ramp jack for my Komet trailer.
Simple, CHEAP (my middle name) and robust. Then I had a landout on a soft surface, and it was quite difficult to raise the glider. As a result, I designed (LOL) the MKII jack, incorporating a large aluminum plate for the wheels to ride on. I linked it to the ramp with a swingarm so it would stay aligned. After building two of these rigs (for others), I've decided that for the .1% of the time I rig (or de- rig) on soft surfaces, I'll just carry a square of plywood. Just the same.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0abKXYtBlu8
