So much for Rockwood giving the correct information about jacking under the axle.
I place a floor jack under the frame between the tires with an 18" long 2"x4"x 1/8" thick steel steel rectangular tube on top of the jack pad, which distributes the force over an 18" long section of frame. These frames seem easily damaged, so I don't take any chances.
