Yes, others have said it, the Pod does NOT have leveling jacks!!! They are stabilization jacks ONLY!! If you try to level the Pod, they will bend.

You have to level side to side by driving the Pod low side tire up onto a block of wood, or plastic Lego levelers, or something similar. Or one of the BAL leveling chock/jacks, might also work.

If you actually unweight the Pod using a stabilizer, that jack will bend if the Pod moves at all front to back. Not good. I wouldn't even try using them to change a tire.

AND BTW, an 18 volt drill with a 3/4" CAMCO socket works GREAT. No need to exercise. Just drill away to lower or raise.
