So the new parts should be coming within the next few days, and I will start the tare down process, and then get ready for reassembly.
I have been looking at the way the HA works and I wonder if the jacks will be swinging into my battery box and my propane tanks. I will post some pictures, and most likely will be taking them all off for the test, with just a battery for the emergency break system.
We'll see. This will be my weekend plans.
Thanks,

Joe,
You MAY have to relocate your tanks slightly forward from their current position. Very easily done, as the base the tanks sit on is simply located with self tapping screws. This is only if the mounting points for the screw jacks interfere with the base the tanks sit on.
The jacks WILL not hit either, assuming you can mount them to the frame without any interference. They are on an angle and pushed out from the frame slightly. Basically, if you can mount them correctly, there is no chance of contact unless you have a very non standard setup.
Same for the battery box, unless you have a non standard setup on it. You'll be surprised how much clearance you have. Most I've seen was to notch the propane tank covers slightly to clear the jack mount. Other than that, golden.
