If you have the Level up system that are supposed to go all the way up when you select "raise rear jacks".

As I said, I'll have to be sure that the system is doing what it's =supposed= to do. LCI stuff, so who knows? Frankly, I'm considering making some 4" blocks specifically for the rear jacks and raising the motors 1 hole, if I have clearance.

Hadn't had a chance to do this before, and have caught some flak for it, so here it is (at least one pic, anyway). :B

Looks good Lyle!!

This is my exact same floor plan. In 2013 it was known as Durango 2857.
We love the large shower and countertops.

I also noticed the jack, but think it is down to level FW, for fridge, or for pic, due to the FW curb side tires being up higher.

Very nice laknox

IS the rear jack extended OR fallen down?

WOW. very nice. I guess I need to show proof as soon as I figure out how.

It is very simple to put pictures into your post on these forums. To post photos do the following.

1. Upload your photo, one at a time, to this site.

2. Copy the resulting URL.

3. Paste the URL directly into your post with NO modifications. Do not add or subtract anything from the URL.

Your picture will then appear in your post and be properly sized for use on the forums. Do the same for each additional photo.

You just Upload, copy, and paste.
If you would like to practice doing that, just go to this thread that I started in the DIY forum to try out the app.
