Lightbulb electric tongue jack (wheel addition)

finally installed my barker tongue jack ...discovered i needed 2.25"hole etc...
to solve the lack of a wheel....i had welded a 2-3" swivel wheel to a 6"
steel disc...drilled several holes and welded 4 - 1/4" bolts ...i then drilled several holes on the barker tongue bottom plate and then attached my "invention"
with wing nuts and lock washers...seems to work fine...i decided to leave the wheel attached since the clearance is more than adequate...the steel plate is
~ the same as the bottom plate 1/8" and the swivel wheel is ~2.5" hi with
ball bearings and a wheel lock ( home depot)... wheel is rated for ~500lbs.
i also thought of using a skid wheel rated at 1000lbs but decided that was an
overkill ( by the way those hi rated wheels are very pricey-~$75 )
will try and post some photos of this and my other fabs when i finally figure
out how to!!!!!!
