Keep your A-frame trailer stable and level at the campsite or job site with the CURT 28250 A-Frame Trailer Jack. Designed specifically for A-frame tongue couplers, this sidewind jack bolts directly to the trailer frame and handles up to 2000 lbs of tongue weight -- giving you reliable, no-hassle tongue support every time you hitch or unhitch.
The CURT 28250 is a no-nonsense sidewind A-frame jack designed for bolt-on installation on standard A-frame trailer tongues. Whether you're hitching up a utility trailer, a small enclosed cargo trailer, or a lightweight recreational trailer, this jack gives you the vertical lift and tongue support you need without complicated setup or specialty hardware.
CURT is one of the most trusted names in towing hardware in North America, and the 28250 fits squarely into their A-frame jack lineup alongside models like the 28300 and 28350 -- which step up in capacity and feature sets. The 28250 is the go-to entry point for lighter-duty A-frame tongue support, making it ideal for trailers where tongue weight stays well under 2000 lbs.
Side-mounted crank handle keeps your hand clear of the ground and is easy to operate even in tight spaces between the trailer tongue and the tow vehicle.
Mounts directly to the A-frame trailer tongue with standard bolts -- no welding required. Simple installation for DIY trailer builders and owners doing their own maintenance.
Rated for up to 2000 lbs of tongue weight, covering the majority of utility, landscape, and light enclosed trailer applications.
At just 9.2 lbs and approximately 25.75 inches long, the 28250 is easy to handle during installation and adds minimal unsprung weight to the tongue.
The 28250 uses a sidewind crank, meaning the handle is on the side of the jack housing rather than the top. Sidewind jacks are the standard choice when there's limited clearance above the jack -- for example, when the trailer's coupler, a toolbox, or the nose of an enclosed trailer sits close to the top of the jack tube. If you have clear vertical access above the jack, a topwind model works equally well, but for most A-frame tongue installations the sidewind design is more practical.
CURT offers a range of A-frame jacks across different capacity tiers:
If your trailer tongue weight is consistently below 2000 lbs and you want a straightforward bolt-on replacement or new build jack, the 28250 is the right choice. Step up to a heavier CURT A-frame model only if your trailer's loaded tongue weight approaches or exceeds this rating.
