The frame is only 0.1 in thick. I wouldn't jack where you marked. See the vertical flanges where the axle it attached to the riser? Those vertical flanges are really strong because there is a lot of steel I'm the direction of the jack lifting force. That's where I lift mine.

In case it's not obvious leave the trailer attached to the tow vehicle eth the TV in gear and brake set. ]]> Sat, 22 May 2021 19:10:33 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14654&PID=142750#142750 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14654&PID=142737#142737 Author: MikeP

Hi folks. Does this pic raise any flags to anyone?  I've read through the many posts on this subject, but still would appreciate comments.  I'm planning on lifting by frame, and a couple vids I saw suggests lifting on the frame just "behind" the axle bracket. But I can't make that work on the one side because the steps are in the way.  So, anyone foresee issues lifting just in front of the back tire at where I put the red marks on the picture? Any red flags on the jack I using ?  Totally overthinking this I'm sure but first time you know.  Thanks for the thoughts
