I agree with having your own Jack, Stand, Wrench, and Soft Ground Board on board. You can supply what ERS might be missing, let a good Samaritan help you, or worst case, tackle it yourself.
I have a short 10-ton that HF sold awhile ago, and it works. Would rather have the double-extending 12-ton noted above.
Drew's right that a six-ton, even a four-ton, CAN lift one corner of a 31-ft Class C. Problem is, the handle effort that would be easy standing next to the coach, is VERY difficult when you have to operate the jack "crawlin' on yer belly like a reptile." That's why I like the 12. Much bigger, say 20, and the jack gets heavy to place. And maybe too tall to get under the axle when the tires aren't aired up.
