I recovered enough bits from the previous mile of roadway and added
bits from the local hardware store to get my jack working for the
contest. I'll probably have to replace the whole thing when I get
home.



I keep mine inside the trailer while on the road. Seen too many
damaged or destroyed wheels in the last 30 years of soaring to let it
happen to me.


After mine wiggled it's way down till the wheel was touching the
pavement, the tire melted and frazzled. My wife hated the original one
anyway, as she always got grease on herself when raising it, so I
replaced the entire assembly with a boat trailer tongue wheel, which
easily rotates 90 degrees for travel.
