I had a boss who would change both legs and give the working one to the weld shop who would make a square base of channel, invert the leg and weld it up w/ a set of wheels to sell as supports to place under spotted trailers. Unlike the wimpy ones they sell; that setup would do more than just support the trailer. Using a crank handle we could raise the trailers. Handy way to re-use an old leg.
Unpleasant call from neighbor

Eek. Can a trailer survive that and still have normal tire wear?

Some of the places that I deliver to expect you to drop the trailer and unstrap everything before they'll unload it which is quite retarded when you look at a picture like this.
Might be a good thing to start showing them pics like this. -

These plastic ones are okay on hard ground, soft ground they’ll just fold up. I use a good set of heavy wood ones about 18”x18”.
