The rig's leveling jacks are designed to hold up the rig.. NOT to keep it from moving side to side or front to back.. If you lift ONE rear wheel of the ground then the rig can move forward or back (Since the parking brake and locks are on the drive shaft) and turn your jacks into very expensive pretzels.
If you lift BOTH either front or rear wheels off the ground then a side wind can pretzel the jacks the same way.
However using other types of supports (Jacking the wheels up with, say a 12 ton air/hydraulic jack and lowering them down on Jack Stands or on vapor blocks) is OK. No problem there at all.
