As you can see below, it has a wide range of functions and applications, including food vans, trailers, horse floats, and camping. The Australia Defence Force even uses it; to securely level a truck carrying a telescope on uneven terrain, four Trail-A-Mates are placed on each corner of the vehicle. It is a very adaptable product.
We have spent years honing and refining the Trail-A-Mate to make it as safe and user-friendly as possible, in addition to its adaptability. We collaborated with the Australian government prior to 2007 in order to help them implement a mandatory safety standard for trailer and caravan jacks.

Indeed, nearly every caravan constructed in the last several years has a cross-member behind the axles that is sturdy enough to support the brackets, which need to be welded on. But in the last few years, most caravan builders have included the brackets that make Trail-A-Mate jacking points as standard equipment.

When utilizing the Trail-A-Mate to jack up a caravan, you are lifting roughly one-third or less of the vehicle's weight at each of the jacking points rather than the caravan's total weight. The Trail-A-MAte MkII is required if the ATM on your trailer weighs more than 2,900 kg.
