Can I use four 3 ton jack stands under each wheel?

[RVBud]

I have a 2006 Dutchmen 38B and someone came out and slashed the tires on 4 RVs in my park, including mine. I now have 4 flats that I have to get replaced.
My question is am I able to use my 12ton jack to lift each side of my RV, remove the tires and place four 3-ton jack stands on each axle near the U bolts?

Sorry to hear that. Where are yoh?

A quick google search shows that the gross weight of the RV is 11176 lbs.

Even if all weight was on the four wheels (which it is not as probably almost half is on the tongue jack), that would equate to less than 3,000 lbs of weight on each of the four wheels. So, I would deduce that a 6,000 lb (3 ton) jack on each end of both axles would be more than sufficient.

Do your research!! Some axles should not have jacks supporting them. Look to find where the manufacturer says to support the trailer.

You can do what you are thinking. Just make sure the jack stands are under the springs.

See page 72 of your owners manual for proper jack placement.
