Apparently, your trailer has a 3"x3" tongue. The jack is made for "up to" a 3x5 inch tongue. At 2:33 in the video, see the empty bolt hole in the upper part of the bracket and an empty hole by your finger? Those holes are for a 3x3 inch tongue. The bracket should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise to be installed correctly. Then the bolts going through the empty holes will fit close to the bottom surface of the 3x3 inch tongue. All 4 bolts will be close to the 3x3 inch tongue. .... No worries as I was perplexed by the same thing until I figured it out. The installation directions for my jack (and apparently yours too) are so poor that the proper orientation of the bracket is not pointed out.

If You had read the instructions You'd see that the mounting bracket needs to be quarter turned so that the mounting bolts are as close to the top and bottom of the tongue surfaces so it doesn't swing off to the side and drop the trailer on someone's foot.

Haha... What a coincidence. We produced this new jack.

I didn't want to snap more pictures of that moment 😂 but you can see it really well in that first intro clip. That's the bent wheel and black streak mark on the driveway. Got out of the car right after and yup... the deed was done.
