motorhome leveling jacks

Thanks for all your replies, really helped.

My wheels only come off to replace a tire or work on the brakes, and then i have wood blocks under the axle,

I use the leveling Jack's to get more elbow room when going under the MH, but the tires always stay on the Ground
Jack's are hydraulic cylinders, No Locking pins

My theory is that I have to go under the motorhome to place the jack stands, so I only use them when I also need to work under the motorhome. For tire or other related external work where I'll be basically clear of the motorhome, I use the leveling jacks only. To be fair, even if the jacks on our coach failed while I was under it I would not be crushed. For most underneath projects, jacking it up just gives me more elbow room...

Yep.

NO!!! NO! NO! Use additional support, such as HEAVY DUTY jack stands or wooden blocks.

I would never go underneath an RV supported only but leveling jacks.
