Camco 44565 Trailer Stabilizer Jack Pads (Set of 4)

Anybody who's set up a trailer on grass, gravel, or a soft launch lot knows the problem. You crank the stabilizer down, it feels solid, and an hour later one corner has quietly settled into the dirt and the whole rig is sitting crooked. The Camco 44565 jack stand pads solve that. It's a set of four rugged polymer pads that sit under your jack feet and spread the load so the foot stays put instead of sinking.

Each pad measures 8-1/2 inches long by 11 inches wide by 1-7/8 inches tall. That wide footprint is the whole point. A bare jack foot concentrates the trailer's weight onto a few square inches of metal, and soft ground gives way under that kind of pressure every time. Set a pad down first and the same weight spreads across a much larger area. It's a small thing that saves you from re-leveling the rig every single day.

They're built for stack jacks, fifth-wheel stabilizers, swing-down stabilizers, and awning support arms. Basically anything with a foot that touches the ground and needs to stay level. Drop one under each corner before you lower the jacks, and the set of four covers a typical four-point trailer or camper with one pad per foot.

A level trailer isn't just about comfort. Doors and slide-outs work the way they should, the fridge sits right, and nothing rolls off the counter overnight. Once a jack foot sinks, all of that goes out of whack, and you're back outside with the crank handle. Keeping the feet from sinking in the first place is a lot less hassle than fixing it after.

The rugged polymer is the reason a lot of folks finally toss their old wood scraps. Plywood and 2x4 offcuts work until they don't. They soak up water, warp, split, and grow mildew in the storage bin between trips. Polymer doesn't do any of that. It won't rot, it wipes clean with a quick rinse, and it stacks flat in a bay or the bed of the truck. Come back muddy from a soft-ground setup, hose them off, and throw them back in the bin.

For boat owners, these earn their keep at the ramp and in the storage lot. Park the trailer on grass or crushed stone and the tongue jack or stabilizer foot wants to dig in over a few days. A pad under each foot keeps the boat sitting right where you left it. Same story for a travel trailer on a seasonal site or a fifth wheel parked on a gravel pad through the winter.

On a hard, level driveway or a paved slab you might not need them at all. Their job starts the moment the ground gets soft. Grass, dirt, sand, gravel, fresh asphalt on a hot day, anywhere a metal foot can slowly work its way down. Keep the set in the truck and you're covered either way, whether you end up on a concrete pad or a grass field at the back of the lot.

Using them couldn't be simpler. Center the jack foot on the pad so it can't slide off the edge as you crank down, then lower the jack the way you normally would. That's it. Because it's a set of four, you're not hunting around the campsite for a flat rock or a scrap of plywood when you get to a soft site.

It's simple gear that solves a real annoyance. If you've ever come back to a leaning trailer or chased a sinking jack foot with a shovel, you already know why these live in the bay. Camco's been making trailer and RV gear since 1966, and the 44565 is one of those small, cheap buys you stop thinking about because it just does its job.
