Question chaging tire/trail repair on a SAS truck

With the flex added with a SAS how do people change a tire or do trail repairs? Are people using limiting straps or some other item so the axle doesn't drop too far.

Fatrick, maybe you're able to lift one wheel off the ground with a 60'' jack but it isn't safe...

The strap method is very safe as you lift the truck the minimal needed (Like if you use a bottle jack under the axle).
