Yes, I see the label says 50#. They are at 65# and Discount Tire, and the other reply, are telling me to set at max = 65#. That is a big variation. Can't imagine why I am confused.

If you go with the trolley jack, I would try a 4X4 block between the jack and the trailer frame. See if that lifts high enough. Boards under a wheeled jack can spell trouble. Multiple blocks are also to be avoided
As an alternative, a 12 ton bottle jack is 9 inches retracted and up to 18 inches extended. Only use while hitched so it can't tip.
The 50 psi spec is correct. The 65 psi max inflation is only applicable at maximum weight. Your trailer is well under the tires max. 50 will give you best wear and trailer ride. 65 without the weight, would wear the center of the tread and ride rough.
