Hi everyone!

I need to jack up my RV-14A for the first time and I have installed these nice STAINLESS TIE DOWN RING (SKU: RVTR4), sold by Cleaveland Tools. Does anyone have any experience if those will hold the weight?

Looks like their round shape was designed to actually nest on the cups of the jacks but my concern is that with the weight they might fail.. There are no specs on the website for these..

Do you need both wheels off the ground? If not, jack at the wheel which has far less chance for mishaps. More than one person has jacked their plane at the tie down and end up with a punctured skin.

I need to put the airplane on flight level attitude to do the ADAHRS calibration. So, yes, both wheels..
