Hi all - I am new to motor homing and have been reading about the need to grease my al-ko rear axle. I believe it is best done with the wheels off the ground to ensure that the grease penetrates to all the correct places. My question is this - I have two 2 tonnes rated axles stands which I use for my cars. My van weighs circa 3,100 Kg so will my stands be Ok just to lift the rear end ( assuming that not all the van's weight is therefore being lifted) or do I have to buy stands that are rated over 3 tons?
