Prolly a dumb question but...do you lift the weight of the camper off the truck before jacking the truck up...never had a flat in all my travels and was just wondering

Uh huh...
I can guarantee you I have changed more than my share of tires and once did it for a living at Sears auto/tire..Never seen anything like you describe and I come from logging communities where things are treated rough and overloaded to boot..Common sense must be the dividing factor in bending or not bending an axle housing with a bottle jack and being sober helps.I have heard..LOL
Have you bent one or are you relying on the internet to back up your opinion...I want to see one where the axle housing was bent using a bottle jack because that is what we are talking about..
We can argue forever what really happens and what might be a myth, but as I suggested before -contact truck manufacturer if they advise lifting the truck with full load by the axle pipe.
