Jacks down during winter storage?
Just wondering what people recommend regarding leveling jacks. During winter storage, should one keep the leveling jacks down, or up? In the storage lot, I see examples of both...some motor-home...

You don't mention if it is an air suspension (Bags) or not.
But my 2 cents. Air bag suspension, I have friends who place blocks under the rail before they dump the air. In this way, as the rig settle down, the rail sits on the blocks taking the load off of the tires. By the way, it only takes 1/4 inch to remove the load.
Me, when we had the S&B unit, extend the jacks down because we would open the slides. And besides the levelers rams are made from stainless steel which does not rust or corrode.
