foot to leveler - Hubert - 12-13-2007 13:54 My M380 loss a foot to the leveler. I have ordered some replacement foots. Does anyone have suggestions or caveats about replacing the foot??? foot to leveler - Gregory OConnor - 12-13-2007 15:23 On the 94pt the foot is held on by two springs. I installed one spring then used bailing wire to hold the other side up because it was too hard to extend the spring and rehook it. I then set the jack down on a block of wood situated in a way that it would stretch the installed spring and relax the bailing wire.(block was under only one side of the foot) I was sure the block would not kick out because I jammed it up against the tire tread. You can then remove the bailing wire and hook the spring. If you lost a foot maybe the spring is defective or lost its pull. look at the length of the loop /hook on the spring. A blowntire kicked off my foot. I hiked back to find it GregoryO'Connor 94ptRomolandCa --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Hubert" wrote: > > My M380 loss a foot to the leveler.

Check your owner's manual for jack points. There is a sevice item regarding the top of the jack--I forget what it is but it is nothing major. Might as well do that while you are under there. Your life will be much easier if you find a pit! Regards, Jim Scoggins formerly 04 M380 > |
