Hmmm .... are you sagging in the rear a bit?
No Phil, I sit level.
What I did was make sure the rv was level using the 'autolevel' feature on my jacks. Once it was level I installed two small levels inside the cab so I can view them from the drivers seat . When I retracted the 'autolevel' system the rig sat level.
When I park at a campsite or overnight lot I can get level most of time without doing anything more that maneuvering the rig around a little.
Reason for bags in the near future:
The rear of the Sunseeker only has a slight upward sloped rear.
I scrape the rear triangle guards that protect the receiver etc.
I scrape them on my driveway when I back in and clear by 1/4" if I pull in forward. I also scape at a dump station I normally use as well as a few campsites hear and there.
I'm tired of my DW asking me 'what's the awful scraping sound"?
I either have to get some bags or leave her home. :)
I figure a set of bags with an on board compressor will help a bit.
I'm judging by how much they raised my truck campers that I previously owned...2" or so , up and down. I'm hoping the bags will offer me about the same up/down distance in this 24' C .
Problem I am having is making sure I order the correct bag set due to the Supersteer rear track bar that I have in place.
SS has been very helpful and it appears that both Firestone bags that sit on top of the spring as well as Air-lift's will fit as long as all bolts are installed in the correct way, so the threaded side (longer side) of the bolt doesn't interfere with the track bar or the AB mounts.
I plan to run a hard wired set of bags not a wireless. Not much of track record yet plus in my experience those inexpensive digital interface setups are not very reliable. I need this to work when I need this to work.
