Jacking

I used the RV JACK STAND KIT from Aircraft Spruce with a simple scissor jack. You modify the axle nut, doesn't add much weight - if any. You insert the shaft into your axle, jack it up and slide the tire out onto the jack shaft. Then you block the axle up and lower the jack. Worked really well.

Of course when I had to get both mains off the ground to setup my fairings I borrowed proper aircraft jacks from the hangar I'm in, lifted under blocks placed under the outside ends of my center section. That worked well, but is way overkill for basic wheel service.
