I thought of that too Jerry, but in our case our rig is very empty of everything right now, so I figured I might be 200 pounds over on each tire, with the truck supporting the hitch.
Also, looking into the manual, it does not recommend that you jack on the axles, but instead jack on the frame.
Not to change your mind on this, but 95% of the reason this is in the manual is lawyers.
Unless jacked right at the spring mount there is the possibility of damaging the axle.
