Daisy,
Harvey is right on. The stabilizer jacks are just that. They keep the
bounce out of the trailer while parked. They are not designed to raise the
trailer nor support the entire weight of the trailer.

Harvey, my '73 has the crank down stabilizer jacks, looking for second
option. Thanks. I had to laugh at the term parking pad. Deep in the
bushes next to a pile of wood chips. Not to annoy the neighbors with the
sight of my beautiful silver baby.
