[Rhodes22-list] proper jack for changing tire

[sail tds.net]

Noticed that one of my tires on my single axel triad trailer was quite low.
I went to use my bottle jack to raise it up in order to take the wheel and
tire to the garage.  Low and behold there is not enough room to get the jack
under the spring hanger or the axel because it is a dropped axel.  When I
attempted to raise it on the frame the bottle jack would not go high
enough.  I finally solved the problem by using my 3 ton floor jack and
lifting the axel. Glad that Serenity was sitting in my driveway. I sure
don't want to take my floor jack with me when I'm travelling and I was
wondering if anyone has an answer.  Sure glad this did not happen on my way
back to NH from FL.
