How do I jack, stabilize and remove both wheels from 1 side?
I have a Forest River, Coachmen, Freedom Express 292BHDS --
It was originally manufactured with axles incapable of supporting its weight and they bent, causing the tires to rub on the underside at times (they were replaced under warranty with higher rated axles). This tore the fibrous "mesh" looking material that protects/covers the wood floor construction in the wheel well area and began to wear away some wood.
I want to protect this area as water will eventually soak into the wood and the whole thing will (eventually) disintegrate.
I think Line-X would be the strongest, longest lasting solution, but I might also consider some DIY spray of a similar product.
Either way, to do this job properly the wheels should come off, both (or all 4) at a time.
Where do I jack this thing up and how is best to support it? The "I" (eye) beam frame construction doesn't make for a big target, especially when about half of it (width wise) is covered with Coroplast.
Also, where is the mid point weight wise on this trailer, best for placing the jack?
Should I be hitched up with WDH bars (Equalizer) in place, or unhitched?
Thanks.
