Hi Matt, I would do one thing at a time. It will be much simpler and require less equipment. I use a regular bottle jack to lift on the rear axle housing. Something like a 6 or 8 ton will work fine. As for supporting the tractor after the wheel is off, I would use the heavier set of jack stands, I believe they are 10 or 12 ton. While the small stands would work, they don't have as much reach, so you would have to use a alot more blocks inbetween the tractor and jackstand. I would stay away from a handi-man jack. They aren't stable enough, safety first, use a floor jack or bottle jack! I hope you have enough room. Good luck Matthew in SD
