HWH Jacks Not Lifting the Bus...84 FC

[Curt Sprenger]

David,

Map Quest shows you are not far from the HWH factory in Moscow, Iowa.
Might want to consider driving over there, make an appointment first,
and have them check out your leveling system. They have 50 amp service,
provide customers a free lunch at a great restaurant, just a great place
to do business, and at a very reasonable price. The HWH owner joined us
for lunch the day I was there. He does not wear a suit, but he does wear
work cloths. Extremely nice person.

HWH spent about 1.5 hours on our Bird. They found the jacks to work as
they should. Only thing wrong was I had instructions that did not match
the jack controls in our coach. The provided me with the correct
instruction, and no charge for the instruction or their time. Here in
California, my area anyway, you will NEVER find that kind of customer
relations.
