Hi all.
For what its worth I always travel with my jacking block. I have had one
incident where my tube blew out on landing at an airport away from my home
base. It would have been very difficult to deal with the situation had I not
had a jacking block with me.
To give you an idea I had 5 hefty guys to help be move my aircraft and it
was a major effort to move it the 3 ~ 4 meters required to clear the
airstrip.

Hi Jerry,
Another option for removing the monowheel wheel is a simple wood jacking
block, as seen in the following Europa mods link;

Look at the section titled; Mono-wheel jacking block

I am going to change my tire and tube and was looking to recommendation
for lifting aircraft to remove tire. I have a hoist-crane that I could lift
at the engine or engine mount. Would that cause any issues or too much
stress at attach points? Thanks for help
