So I wanted to keep my tires from getting flat spots. Does anyone see anything wrong with what I've done? The jackstands are under the axle tubes, and all four tires are off the ground.

YES...jack stands belong under the spring plate or frame...NOT THE AXLE TUBE

Don't forget to lower your drive all the way down.

Re: Tahoe Trailer winterization

I don't know, I have had this boat going on 10 years now and have never put it on jacks and never had any flat spots. I think that was something that happened with the older bias tires. I could be out in left field (wouldn't be the first time) but I just don't think that it needs to be done anymore. I guess it is a pretty good deterrent from someone stealing your boat..

Nope, you're on base!

Makes it damn easy for them to steal your wheels though!;)

I guess if you go to all the trouble to put it on jacks you could take off the wheels off and put them inside..
