Changing a tire on a travel trailer is not a difficult task, but it is important to follow all safety precautions in order to avoid injury or damage to your trailer. With a few tools and some careful work, you’ll have your new tire changed in no time!
Park the trailer on level ground and set the emergency brake.
If your trailer has a slide-out, make sure that it is fully retracted.
Use a heavy duty jack to support the trailer.
Use a socket wrench to remove the axle nut. This nut is usually very tight, so you may need to use a lot of force to loosen it.
Use a torque wrench to properly tighten the axle nut and wheel bolts. Refer to your owner’s manual for the proper torque settings.
Test drive the trailer to make sure that the new tire is working properly.
