Iron to iron is the correct way to measure. Forget about the rubber stop.
I've seen this listed both ways and can say this........with having only 1 3/4", not counting the rubber stop, is next to having nothing, but then I don't think I've seen this accepted 1 3/4 - 2 1/2" height ever listed, less the stops.
Page 18 Here. Also if you have bags in the coil springs the proper way to add air to them is to raise tires off ground let all the air out then inflate. Lower rv to ground and then you can reduce pressure for your likening.
After looking at the diagram and studying the chart for a Class A MH and after reviewing my previous statement, as well, I've decided to stick with said statement. Again, this is just IMHO and only worth what you're paying for it.
I do agree with what you're saying about the air bags and assuming one would insist on living with such, which is another example of trying to make a right, out of two wrongs. Having said that, the best engineers in the world, can't win against the bean counters.
Are you saying the manuals are wrong?
I'm saying that I still don't see the dimensions I specified, that doesn't include the stops on the chart. Just larger and since I don't know for sure, without crawling down under right now, what the stops measure, then the specs. could well be the same and there is more than one way to measure things, in most cases. One thing is for sure, the stops are going to make contact first and I for one, don't like hearing them doing that on a regular basis.
