Where to place jack to change tire on Toy Haulers?

Assuming that I have only a single bottle jack and I want to put jack stands under both axles (of just one side), how would I go about that? The general consensus seems to be that placing the jack (bottle or stand) under the spring perch is the way to go. There isn't enough room to jack up an axle and then get the jack stand under the same spring perch.

I'm certain that without a LOT of cribbing my bottle jack won't reach the frame.

Axle and trailer mfg warn not to jack from axle because unthing owners placed their jack towards the center of the axle and bent it.
I have a 12 ton hyd shortie truckers special that has a cradle welded to the top of the jack that cradles the axle tube on a std leaf spring axle system.
Placed under the axle next to the U bolt works great for just lifting one end of a axle (1750lb-10k axle tubes) for changing a flat or R&R one wheel.

Now if I want all wheels of the ground on a long trailer then I use two jacks to lift one side at a time. Having bent the frame with one jack on a fully loaded 34' flatdeck I now place the jacks next to the farthest aft and forward spring hangers.

Whatever method your planning on using to change a flat tire on the side of the road do a dry run at home. Living next to the mother road (old US-66) I've helped lots of trailer owners (rv and non rv) who never tried their system at home.
One guy thought he had enough cribbing to raise the side of the trailer to change a flat tire on a 38' triaxle LEQ with 7k axles. I slid old shorty under the end axle tube and raised the flat tire of the ground without raising the trailer. He said a shorty hyd jack was now on his short list.

Discount Tire lifted all 3 axles and replaced all the tires. Worked great.

My dual-axle toy hauler had too much articulation between solid axles to use the Trailer-Aide (not enough lift). However, it works on my cargo trailer which uses torsion axles. I know I am applying all the weight of one side of the trailer to a single torsion arm, but feel this fine in a static application for the limited period of time needed to change out a tire.

Spring perch.

Txsurfer 2nd that! I always carry a few blocks of wood and make a ramp similar to your - (Trailer Aide) Along with two spare tires and a bottle jack as well. If you jack it up you'll need to watch your shackles as well.

This works for me

I prefer a ramp on the other tire on that side. Home built with a 2x6. Works fast. I would require tire shop to use my ramp.

OSHA would require them to not utilize your home built device with no weight rating.

Just to change a tire or 2 jack it up under the spring perch. Dont make things overcomplicated

With a triple axle, I only let Discount do 1 side at a time.
When you jack up both sides on a triple axle, the middle axle does weird stuff and flips the shackles around.
Most 16 year old kids at tire shops don't know how to handle that, so I tell them to only do 1 side at a time.
Dual axle, lift the whole trailer at once, no problem there.

Dual axels will flip on you as well so dont say no problem there...
