How to Change a Caravan Tyre

Cannot see why one would have to jack up to remove trim?

Does not state to leave the car attached. And pictures indicate that car is not attached.

Angle of van in pics is frightening.

Would be nice if it explained ways of getting spare wheels off Alko sliders, including allowing room for other traffic.

Does not explain the logic of where to position the jack, or of what type of jack to use.

Not a good practice. Caravan should be hitched wherever possible

It is also (as already pointed out) important where you jack. And the torque settings? I understood that a bottle jack was better than a scissor jack?

Me? - I'd leave it to the breakdown service.

Erm, to change a Caravan Tyre I think you'd have to take the wheel to a Tyre Shop and let them use one of their machines remove the old tyre, and replace it with a new one. You could do it the old-fashioned way with tyre levers, I've done that with a motorbike before.

Thank you all for your helpful comments.

Of course the caravan has to be attached to a car, but we assumed that one would know. We will update the infographic based on your useful tips.
