Hey guys,I am putting 4 new tires on my camper this weekend and I have a question. It will easier for me to take the tires and rims off, and take them to the tire place, two at a time. My question is would it be better to take both from one side or do the two fronts and the two backs separately. I will be putting the camper (26 foot) on jacks while I work. I don't think it would be good idea to take all four off at once.Thanks!

My local rv repair shop where I get my work done takes both off one side at a time.

I would think anyway you like would be just fine. JMHO

I did mine per axle. Seemed easier to run one axle up on a ramp to lift the other, then reverse to finish the other one. YMMV.

I'm thinking it might be easier and safer to lift one axle at a time.

I did mine as you are wanting to do. I removed one tire and put the spare on with two nuts finger tight. Then removed tire 2. Same forthe other side. Just felt safer that way.

I removed two per side. I also see no problem with jacked secured and taking all four at once.

I put the jack under the axle pivot and then put jack stands under axles to do one side at a time...

I take mine to the tire shop and let them do it.
Much quicker, safer and might not even cost any more.

When I rotate my RV tires I jack up the sides and take off the two tires on that side.

No need to jack up the trailer. Put some 2x8, 2x6, whatever you have. Stack them high enough to pull the one axle onto the blocks and when the other axle comes off the ground an inch, stop. Leave the truck hooked up to the trailer and go change out the tires. Repeat for other axle. Much safer and easier then jacking up the trailer.
