leveling a class a motorhome

I think I have the same RV you do. It does not have to be perfectly level for the refrig to work ok. If you only use the AUTO level, you may have any of the wheels come off the ground. As stated above never the rear wheels. What I usually do is use the MANUAL setting on your leveler and just do what you are ok with, and keep all four on the ground.

I will not let any of our wheels come off the ground when leveling. We are lucky that we have air AND hydraulic leveling. If we are not on concrete, I'll use the air leveling. Obviously, the tires are firmly planted when using air leveling which makes me feel more comfortable.

Once in Albuquerque, NM, at the American RV park, their new section had nice pull-through sites with concrete pads. Not a tree is site in the new section.

The small problem was that the sites are slanted with the front of the site being the higher end. I put down the hydraulic jacks and during the night, we started sliding backwards even though none of the tires were off of the ground. Early in the morning, I started the engine to air up the bags and leveled on the air bags (no more sliding).

So now, I'm very aware of the angle of the lot. I just wish that American RV Park would have leveled the sites better since this was a very new section and started with a clean slate.

Just recently in Butte, MT, I noticed a rig that had all four wheels off of the ground. The site didn't seem too out of level. I just don't understand why they would want to do that and I wanted so bad to tell them that the rear wheels should never be off of the ground because of the parking brake. I would have told them but they were never home when I was there.

MM.

Why not put blocks under front wheels for support. Auto leveling frequently does that for me but manna I can avoid it.

Front wheels yes.

Rear wheels no....the parking park is on the rear wheels.

It will not hurt anything to have the front wheels off the ground a few inches to level your coach. What you do not want to do is lift the rear wheels off the ground on an unlevel spot because when you drain the air the springs will set the brakes on the rear wheels only, no brakes in the front. Some add some shims or boards under the wheels, but not necessary. Your step will be a little higher so you might have to at a portable step to ease that problem.

Yea its my front wheels and they are up about three to six inches.

Lots of opinions. I never want back wheels off the ground. Sometimes my front wheels are off the ground. I do carry couple of ramps in case it is excessive. I've never had a problem with my jacks when they raised the front wheels off.
