Thought I was confused  before. Now I'm not sure. So let me get this straight; so the HF jacks rated at 12 ton/pair are actually 6 ton individually? Since my rig is 23k would 4 of the HF jacks rated at 12 ton pair be the way to go or do I need bigger?

12 tons X 2 is 24 tons for the 4. Dats 48,000 lbs. I think that would do it...

The pair are rated at 12 ton or 24,000 lbs. So if your going to use the stands front and rear, yes 4 stands would be correct. If you know the weight of the front you could use lower rated stands for it. When I weighed my coach the front was under 6,000 lbs so I could use 6 ton rated stands. However, the 6 ton stands are not tall enough to support the frame.
