And the distance the jacks travel does not change. Just adding this to maybe get a answer to what I think is right. D
My whole coach lowers about 3 inches when I dump the air in the bags.....also this allows for bout 3 inches less travel of the jacks to stabilize the coach....I have a Spartan chassis.

Thanks for all the info. Really love the coach so far. Our old Four Winds Infinity was a great traveler, but this is a whole new dimension in quality, complexity, and ride. Will have many more questions.
Found out that the front wheel position is not critical, as others have said.

I will have to watch for that "creep".

We have an Ultimate. After 8 coaches We feel it's the best; I just hit the HWH, button Twice With the key on accs. It will do what needs to be done. IT well dump/leval With no more attention; When the coach sets for a while It is not uncommon for the air to bleed of, in front or rear resulting in an unleval istuation. I say when possable use the jacks, That is what they are disigned for.. Life is good. Wellcome to the forum
