Jacking up 5th wheel

Some people say it is ok to jack a camper up under spring perch what is that. I have done it by the frame with 6x6"s but my question is when you jack up one side by the frame I have noticed that the landing gear on that side comes off the ground is that normal and is it putting to much stress on the other side.

Probably ok for campers but I would not recommend for 5th wheels. There has been a lot of damage by not using the frame reported including mine. Use the frame like you are supposed to and there wont be any damage. Since the frame is stiff and doesnt bend it is quite normal for the landing gear to raise off the ground when you jack the 5th wheel up.
