6pt hydraulic leveling system

Many past post on subject I predict 50/50 response. Good luck and yes can be done

Lippert doesn't recommend it. But good luck, getting all the wood stacked and a bottle jack all the way up to the frame like recommended. At least on my 5th wheel anyway, the frame is tall. I would use the leveling system to work on mine next time, just lower the jacks, one side at a time. You only have to get it off the ground an inch, like you may actually encounter at a campsite with unlevel ground anyway. I think the manufacturer doesn't recommend it for liability just in case someone crawls underneath it.

I have done it multiple times.

Works great.

I raise mine all winter long.

Because of their lawyers Lippert doesn't recommend it.

Can you? Easily.

Should you? Well, Lippert, like most large companies, has attorneys whose job is to protect them from product liability litigation. You can imagine where they come down (no pun intended) on this subject.... Personally, I wouldn't hesitate to use the system to pull a wheel for a tire change or maintenance.

Rusty

Mine looked very nice on the tire dealers lot with all 4 wheels off while new tires were being mounted. The tire guy really appreciated it.

Look at it this way. Those 4 skinny rear cylinders are rated for 8k each and the fronts for 12k IIRC. That's 56k of lifting capacity for a 14-15k trailer.

Lawyers plan for the worse possible event but just when they think they have all the bases covered Mother Nature build a better idiot.

I got my first auto level 5W last Friday
I can see how it is life changing at the campgrounds but I hadn't thought about changing tires
So let's say you are on the shoulder of an interstate with a blown tire. I know on mine you can obviously extend the front jacks independently. Do you just extend the jacks on the side with the blow out?

We just added the Equalizer System 6 pt hydraulic levelers & it has plenty of power/strength to lift the rv off the wheels.

Exactly, and throw in a cordless impact and you can be back on the road in under 15 minutes, 5 minutes if the spare is readily accessible.
