Where you have the jackstands is OK, I personally like jacking on the frame. Reason not the axle tube is that if you look at the axle, it has an arch to it, that's how the suspension gets it's camber. With the weight of the trailer where the spring is, and the jack up farther along the axle tube, you could possibly bend the axle or screw up the camber. You probably figured out by now that nothing on these trailers is "heavy duty" or bulletproof.....
I hear you BurbMan. I would never jack an axle in the center and your correct that I am pushing where I had it in the pic.
Yes, it is very obvious that the bean counters are in control of what components are used in this industry.
