I agree Sully. What if a child crawls under that thing and it decides to let go?

No one has ever been able to change the "Laws of Physics" yet, so how is the MH going to suddenly fall off the jacks without some other outside action? These jacks are the ones that go straight up and down. When you raise the tires off the ground, you are transferring the weight from that tire, to that jack. My jacks do not have wheels on them, so they do not roll. Even if you raise the rear tires off the ground, the weight is transferred to the rear jacks. These jacks are either bolted or welded to the frame. There are those on here that seem of the opinion that the world will come to an end if you raise a tire off the ground. You and a few others on are fighting a loosing battle about having a tire off the ground.

Since no one has stated whether this rig has electric or hydraulic jacks I'll ask you if you have ever seen a hydraulic hose rupture under pressure? The original poster ask if we saw anything wrong with this? My answer is still - HELL YES! It may be a million to one chance of it happening, but common sense says error on the side of safety. If you think for one minute the engineers designed levelers with that in mind you are living in a fantsy world. If nothing else he will eventually bend one or more of those levellers. Every day on here the topic of how long to run older tires comes up. The common sense people go by the recommendations on tire life. The careless simply do what they can justify in their own minds.
