Let's see if I got this right: You have to jack up the bus and jack down the
bus at the same time. That is if you have the correct length bottle jack and
the bus is not so low that you can't get any jack under there in the first
place; then you have to wrestle the tire out with help from at least two other
people. And then you got a 200+ pound person to stand on a long pry bar jammed
into the suspension somewhere. Sure hope you don't have a flat on a lonely
road at night by yourself. LOL!
That ain't covered in my Bentley Manual.
