I had the same problem. I made some "jack stand" that are permanently attached to my trailer. I got two pieces of heavy-wall pipe, sized so that one just slips inside the other. Welded a short piece of the larger size to each side of the trailer frame as far aft as I could get them. Then I took the smaller size, cut off a couple of pieces about 2 feet long, welded a piece of plate on the bottom for a 'foot'. Picked up the trailer with my FEL and slipped the legs/feet into the larger pipe. Drilled a hole through both pieces with the legs in the full up position. Then I drilled several sets of holes about 2" apart towards the top of the legs. This allows me to pin them in the full up position for travel, and gives me a few choices for the down position if the trailer is not perfectly level. They work super for me.

If you're interested, and this explanation isn't clear enough for ya, email me, I'll try to get a couple of pictures for ya.
