Fun with the Rebel Bird
Use a long 2x4 or similar board. Place one end (from the rear)
against the bottom of your rearmost tire. Raise the board until it hits the lowest projection at the rear of the coach (the part that bottoms out first). Then note how much distance you have between the door and the board ... anything that remains above the board is less likely to increase your dip-dragging potential in most cases. Still, any extra rear overhang will have some chance of striking the ground in some circumstances. Perhaps you can create a hinge-connection so that if the porch bottoms out, it can swing up a bit. A 'skid' on the bottom of the porch might help. This may require a little more engineering with the railing, but should be doable. Pete Masterson aeonix1@...
