To follow up on Uncle Fuzzy's design I modified the ramp on my Pfiefer
tube trailer from the early 80's. Images at: http://picasaweb.google.com/TTaylor07/TrailerJack I used four wheels rather than two for a little more surface area. On real soft ground you could carry two 12"x12" pieces of plywood if needed. |

I especially like the Tournagrip tape on the handle. Very sporty!

Nice work! Thanks for the report.
I'd love to replace the cruddy trailer screw jack on our 80's Komet. I was encouraged to see Fuzzy could lift an LS6 with it - how much force does it take? I guess I need to find someone who can weld such a thing ... |

I guess I need to find someone who can weld such a thing ... My BETA tester was a 100 pound woman. It wasn't 'effortless' for her, but she managed to lift the fully rigged Speed Astir, which is a little heavier than the LS. I can't provide a link in this post, but there is a YouTube video of the Mk II ramp jack, that incorporates a large aluminum plate to accommodate rigging on soft surfaces. After building two of them, I decided I'd rather use the original version, and carry a 2' square chunk of plywood for those rare times when I'm on a soft surface. Uncle Fuzzy |

I recently replaced the screw jack on my 1980's Komet, someone here suggested this: http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...6266_200446266 Had someone weld it on, so far so good. I don't have any pictures, I'll try and get some soon. |
