Good, I'm glad it works for some. It certainly Would save a lot of time and effort. But, I personally have stripped the screw on the tool. It was on a tool that I made up as a dual purpose tool from a Warner wheel bearing tool that I had. You can see it here. It served me well until the bolt and nut stripped. So I've erred on the safe side ever since. I'd say...you can try it...with the couch down. If it doesn't feel right...Stop. JWID

Thanks for the opposing view Ken...always good to hear polite descent.

After looking at the pictures of your tool, I can see why you might be jacking up the coach first. My tool is built much heavier (bolt diameters and cross bar thickness) than the one in the picture you posted. As I stated before, It is also important to lubricate the threads of the tool adjusting bolt.
