Hotjag1,
Just wondering Sir. May I ask, what would be wrong with creating a couple of "ramps/blocks" that, would allow you to drive on them, on the left side, to "pre-level" the coach so that, your jacks would not have to work so hard in leveling the coach? I do that all the time when out in un-level camp sites. This way, the coaches NATURAL stance, is primarily achieved without over working the jacks and therefore, you may, eliminate torqueing the frame which, may have detrimental effects on the body and windshield. Just some thoughts here.

I did mention at the end of my post, that I had filled in the low spot where the rears wheels sit, so now the MH is level when parked without using the jacks. I thought the reason for having jacks was so there wasn't a need to have to mess with wooden blocks. As you suggested, I guess that is going to be necessary if the site is fairly off level, unless I am not leveling correctly.
Since the coach was only low on the left side, I just put the left side jacks down. The right side jacks were not in contact with the ground. I'm wondering if that is what caused the problem.
