Jack Placement to Change my Tire
Hello All, I’m stuck in the middle of no where with a flat tire. I have 2 20 ton bottle jacks and a 1/2” impact ratchet and a socket. I don’t know where to place the jacks, Do I need both jacks? ...

Thank you, Both!!
I’m so terrified of making things worse. I read that I have to lift both front and back or that I risk breaking the cabin. Is front tire, btw. I’m so glad I don’t have to deal with those dual tires in back... yet!
You read all sorts of **** that's not true. Now let me ask you a question.. Everywhere you drive is it flat as a pool table.. NO, you have pot holes and uneven ground..
Have you ever had to put a plank under a wheel or use your RV's jacks to level it.. YES. You are not going to lift the wheel that much.
AND IN FACT if that little bit would have damaged it just sitting there with the flat tire would damage it.. So that "Breaking the cabin" well if you lifted it like 5 feet perhaps. but 5 inches. no.
