Changing a Tire
Because
of the design of a Scotty axle, changing a Scotty tire is
a little different than most. You have to jack the trailer
up on both sides so the axle drops
down to lower the wheels.
Park
trailer on a flat level location where ground is firm.
Block your tires and loosen the lug nuts.
Lower the tongue as far down as it goes.
Place
your jack under one rail and jack up as high as it will
go
and then raise your jackstand up to that level.
Do the
same on the opposite side.
An SUV
version of the jackstand that will raise 21" works great.
When
you have both wheels well off the ground, raise your trailer
tongue
back up, which will raise the
wheels even higher and allow the
axle to drop so wheel
with the flat may be removed.
