A jack foot pad spreads tongue-jack load on soft ground so the jack tube does not punch into gravel or asphalt. Match the foot to the jack tube size and keep the pad under the jack before you unhitch.

A bare jack tube concentrates thousands of pounds on a small footprint. On warm asphalt or soft campsite soil that becomes a hole. A pin-on or bolt-on foot widens the contact patch.
Chock the wheels first. Lower the jack onto the pad, then unhitch. Do not drag the pad across pavement under load. Inspect the pin or bolts each season — Canadian freeze-thaw loosens hardware.
