How to remove generator from RV?
If I need to remove the generator from my RV, what's the best way to do that? Mine unbolts from the front and hinges down. So I assume I'd have to undo the hinge bolts at the back also and lower it....

The generator in my class C (also accessed from the side) wasn't hinged. I just used an ordinary car floor jack to lower it, guessing at the balance point and getting close enough to be able to control it reasonably on the way down. The greater part of the job was disconnecting everything, and getting access to the points to disconnect everything (wires and the gas line). A transmission jack might be a bit easier, but this worked out okay to lower and replace it.
Do take care to plan ahead as needed for adequate clearance under the side skirt once the generator is lowered to be able to get it out from underneath.
