Timely manner as I too, ordered a pair of air/hydraulic jacks and OTC stands a while back. Once the coach comes home, I want to do a few under the bus things. This is where I don’t mind throwing myself under the bus as they say!
Also, I completely agree that I would not put undue stress on the rear axle tube and it also does nothing to prevent the vehicle from airing the body back down on you on an inadvertent air loss. Blocking or jacking the axle for maintenance work after the body is supported is the way I would go.
But yes, inquiring minds are curious as to jack and cribbing locations.
I will post pics later of what I made for cribbing using a leftover support beam that I liquid nailed two sections together and lag bolted them for more mass support.
