Flat Tires

When cleaning the Montana last week I discovered a slow leaking rubber valve stem and had it replaced with one of the same type. This morning I went out and found another tire gong flat for the same reason, and when dropping the spare found it in the same shape. Got out the Floor jack and stands, then immediately took all five tires/wheels in to have the rubber stems replaced with metal units. Lucky it was in the driveway and not on the road.

This got me to thinking about how I would change a tire on the road if my Good Sam ERS wasn't available. I don't like to carry my 80lb. floor jack with me and I don't believe the tow vehicle's jack is up to the task. Has anyone in the group got a suggestion as to a light weight jack that will lift high enough?

Thanks,
Don
