Do NOT let any tire shop jack up your trailer by the axels! If they bend them it puts your wheels out of alignment. I have a 41 foot 5er and have them jack up the trailer on the frame if they can reach it, which they usually can. DT put on a set of Sailuns last year and did one side at a time. They had plenty of room for my rig and had no issues and had me in and out quickly. They used a 10 ton floor jack operated with their compressor air system. Never saw a floor jack that big before. Lifted that fiver no problem. They could only do 80 lbs of pressure for the tires so I finished airing up at my storage lot where they can fill to 120 psi. I run mine at 108 psi. I would suggest going over to whatever DT store you are thinking of using first to see clearances and discuss with the guys how they want you positioned. Makes things a whole lot easier.
