How does it work if you do not have a tandem axle?

I think you have your wife/girlfriend stand on the ramp and hold the trailer/boat up while you change the tire.

Oh yes, that will improve and lengthen communication between the two of you

Do you think I could use the ex wife for this?<br /><br />She would make a great jiffy jack - just laying there like a lump do nothing was a specialty of hers.

Yea, but you gotta listen to the grunts when getting her in place!

An $18 bottle jack is much more useful and takes up the same amount of room to store. Who is going to watch the tire as you drive up on the jiffyjack to make sure you don't go too far?
