I had to pull my rear wheel a couple weeks ago to repair a flat. Went to the store a mile away for a paper and got a f'n nail in my tire. I didn't have the jack at the time and I tried to use a milk crate. I spent about 6 hours trying to get the axle through with all the bits lined up. It was twice as hard lying on my side all uncomfortable, not to mention the milk crate caved in almost dumping my bike. DO NOT USE MILK CRATES!!! Once I got the jack I had 'er back together in literally 5 minutes. Worth every penny and the 2 busted knuckles it took to assemble the jack. If you tie the bike down good you should have no problems! Enjoy!
