Stabilizing an M1102

Afternoon Folks,

Please advise best way(s) to mount stabilizing jacks to the corners of this trailer? If the body is aluminum how does one weld a jack to it? Are people welding them to the steel frame underneath and simply pivoting them into place? I'd prefer to have them mounted in fixed vertical positions on the exterior corners.

I know it's dependent on the load, gross weight and/or height but is it recommended to mount them to all four corners or pick two and mount on opposing corners?

Plan is to build a rack and mount a RTT eventually.

Thanks to all............

You could mount them to the stabilizer mount tubes, that come all ready mounted with the trailer?

The trailer comes with two adjustable stabilizer legs & landing pads. They are attached to the front or rear supplied mounting points for what ever you need. The RTT you speak of, what are you trying to install on the trailer? I pick two rear corners for height & stability & use the front landing leg as a third point. If you need all four corners locked, you will need two more landing legs to complete your stabilization needs.
