StephenH - Another subject - I'm 75 years old and concerned about traveling and having a flat - saw your axle riser 2 X 6 jacking block on another post. I would sincerely appreciate it you could provide a dimensioned sketch so that I can have one made up. I know that if I called AAA for road service that they would probably damage my axle attempting to help me.  ps looked at all your impressive R Pod modification - thanks, definately you are the Macgyver of the R Pod world!!!!
I replied to your private message. In essence, I just used scrap lumber to make the block. There is no real design. Just make a V notch and then make the part where the wires run along the axle wide enough so that the wires don't get pinched. Make the notch deep enough so the weight of the RPod rests on the axle mounting bracket, not the axle tube.
