Interesting. Oddly, I could only find 1 on Amazon, at ~3x the price:

But there were several at ~6x that price!

Thanks for the tip...the base looks a little small...how stable is it?

Just checked the site...it is only rated to 770lb which is pretty well the minimum for my 7000lb TT...bummer.

Like the design, but also have questions on the stability, shipipng to the US is only $19 so I make take a chance on it. I had debated building a solution /w some 2x4's and a bathroom scale but this is about the same price and seems easier?

Just a heads up for those who have never previously purchased from PA... The quality of their merchandise is usually quite poor (reflected in their prices). I have had less-than-stellar experience with some of their products, rarely purchasing from there anymore.

I tested mine on grass with a peice of plywood as the base and did not feel concerned at all. Keep in mine you are only bringing the jack ¼” of the ground, so if anything happened you are covered. Took a few Photos.

Did I read the maximum capacity right...770lbs?

It would not work for me. My trailer is 950lbs on the tongue, wet and loaded for the road.

Yeah 220lbs - 770lbs

I built the bathroom scale setup and it worked out great and very accurate. Two 2x4 and a 1" wood dowel cut in two 12" pieces and old scale. 825lb tongue weight is what I found. Did not expect it to be that much. When I stood on the setup, it read my weight accurate.
