Joe - also when you jack it up, be sure to do each side together or very gradually. If you jack one corner too much you can crack a windshield....don't ask how I learned this.

I made some heavy duty ramps and get the rig about 12 inches off the ground before I start jacking and placing HD jack stands and blocks.

Just a word of caution, if you lift the rear wheels off the ground the
Coach will roll if the front tires are not fully blocked to prevent the roll.

Safe travels,

Yes - 91 WLWB - I did jack it up uniformly - I let it down unevenly!

Thank you Bob. Good to know. I have have been aggressive in my jacking and de-jacking in the past. Will keep your advice in mind in the future.
