2016 T@B S Max - Jack Points

MikeE

Hello.

I am looking for recommendations for the placement of a floor jack.
I need to raise the trailer for maintenance.
Jacking using the Torflex axle as a lift point is not recommended and I do not want to compromise the integrity of any of the chassis seal components that appear to be installed along the frame edges.

Suggestions are very much appreciated.

Thank you -

Mike

Know jack is required. Lower  tongue as far as possible. Then lower rear stabilizers till they are firmly on the ground. Then raise tongue till tires clear the ground. This is the  procedure recommended by the  manufacture.

Thanks Dale, I was kinda wondering the same thing for future reference!

Dale -

Would this procedure be recommended as part of a long term storage procedure? I am told that jacking a trailer to raise the tires off the ground is advised for outdoor winter storage.

It will clearly support the trailer. It is gear driven no  hydraulics that can bleed off. So I would assume no time limit.

The brake adjustment section of the T@B owner's manual (such as it is) says to lift the camper by positioning jacks under the frame 12" to 20" behind the axle.

(The alternative procedure described above by Dale is also in the manual in the section covering flat tire repair.)
