Regarding jack stands, I have sometimes used them when the wheels are off the ground and I'm messing around under parts of the coach that could flatten me if it came down off the jacks. Otherwise I use hydraulic jacks to move the coach up just a bit or to add security at its normal height with me under it. Since my 77 coach has leaf springs in the back assisted by airbags I only worry about the inch or so drop that would occur if the bags dropped pressure, that drop wouldn't flatten me but it would make it hard to get out quickly and easily.
