Jacking up with MorRyde IS

Does your RV have jacks? If so can't you lift it off the ground and put jack stands or blocks under it as a measure in case the jacks fail?

And what kind of TPMS? Most aftermarket ones just screw on to the shrader valve. Sounds like you have ones that need installed to the inside of the rim.

If you have the hydraulic rams simply lift it off the ground. ORRRR buy this if it makes you feel better. TrailerAid Plus.

I would not lift on the IS suspension!!!

I agree that using a ramp is the safe way...also the easy way.

Good advice above. I would use a EZ Jack type to lift. Or lift the frame using the trailer mfg instructions. A bottle jack could slip, one with a saddle might be better. The typical tire dealer might be clueless about how to jack a MORryde suspension and just use a scissor jack.

Regardless connect the tow vehicle for fore-aft stability and raise any stabilizing jacks

Why not wait until you break camp and have it done? Or install TMPS sensors on the tire stems? Pros and cons to internal vs external sensors.

These are the internal sensors that integrates with Ford TPMS monitor.

I don't know if there's a weight restriction on electric jacks, even then the rear jacks currently need something underneath as I ran out of stroke on the rear jacks. Currently have (2), 2x12 stacked under the rear jacks. I'm wondering why the rear jacks are on bolted on so close to the corplast underneath the trailer.

Are you on an unlevel site? Any RV I have ever owned the jacks would lift it up off the ground. Maybe get more boards?

I use these boxes all the time for better stability and when ground is uneven. RV is off the ground in pic and hooked to truck.

Those boxes, did you make them? Is there internal structure too?

I did make them. They are 3/4" AC solid core plywood glued with Permatex PL3 and screwed. There are no internal supports even with 17,500# setting on the four. The front boxed are longer and do have a pc of 3/4" plywood mid way vertical. They are holding up well with 6 years of full-time use.

I cut all the pcs from one pc of plywood.

Those are very nice blocks. For a different application I made these. My blocks are 1’x1’x2”, 1 1/4” (ie 1.25") sub floor plywood and 3/4” plywood glued (Gorilla glue) and screwed together. The cut corners eliminate the sharper square corners. They can be stacked as needed. The rope loop makes them easy to retrieve with any pole and to carry. They are also useful for securing picnic table covers, mats, etc. in windy conditions.
