    Google AI response to the question is even more ambiguous.

    "Trailer tongue jacks are typically welded on the right side of the trailer because it provides the most convenient access to the jack handle while standing behind the trailer, allowing for easier operation and better visibility of the jack's position when raising or lowering the trailer; this is especially important when maneuvering in tight spaces.
    Key points about tongue jack placement:
    Accessibility:
    Placing the jack on the right side allows the user to easily reach the crank handle with their dominant hand while standing behind the trailer. "

    Talk about a bullshit answer!

    I'm thinking we got some time before we need to worry about AI.

    When talking about vehicles left and right, you assume your standing behind the vehicle and the drivers side is left. Why would you not assume the same thing with a trailer? That AI makes the turn signal left on the vehicle and right on the trailer :smash:

    Guess the trailer isn't being towed by a BMW. I have it on good authority that they don't have blinkers.

    The trailer I bought last summer is a great design, the jack is set back so you can lower the tailgate without hitting. :thumbsup:

    The fellow started building trailers in 1976 so he knows a thing or two.

    I pulled GooseNecks weekly from the age of 16 to 24. The bar was always on the drivers side.

    I worked with a guy who hit the jack with the tailgate of his 1 week old truck. :mad:

    That will make even a calm natured fellow say :censored:.

    Such a generous compensation package considering my small contribution. :humble:

    That whoopee cushion might be handy, as one ages you become less trusting of various things...

    The box I shipped to MTgirl has made surprisingly logical progress. At least so far.

    My boat trailer jack is driver's side but flippable. My father in laws side by side trailer has it on the passenger. He's a little backwards but he is usually driving while somebody else guides him and connect/disconnects. Thinking about it, it's easier for him to look over his shoulder and see me on the pass side than turn around and see my hand signals on driver's side. Having said that, I'm not sure he's ever even thought about it.
