Easiest way is to pull 1 axle up on 2x8 made into a ramp about 6" high,that leave other axle hanging.Yes you can jack between axles.look under for reinforfed part of frame [where axles mount]and you can put your jack stands under there.Dave

hi bigmike

under the axles, NO

between the axles on the mounting bracket/rail yes...

on use the factory jack points noted in this thread...

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f457...eam-18435.html

for a single wheel on a multiaxle unit a ramp is an easy safe approach.

cheers
