My problem with using the level up to jack the trailer was that the suspension would shift at the shackle and drop the tire I needed to remove. After talking with Dexter, I use the level up to raise the trailer and hold the weight using the frame, and my 20 ton jack only supports the axle from dropping when the suspension shifts, not lift the trailer itself.
I have Road Armor suspension with wet bolts. Without supporting either axle, it will shift to try to keep the tires on the road. The first time it did this, it was a loud popping noise that made me think I broke something.
