During the Workhorse/Bosch brake recall, I got a call to come and pick up my Winnebago from the Workhorse Service Shop. When I walked into the service area, I couldn't believe what I was seeing there was 8 coaches in there and they were all off the ground via there own self levelers (all the wheels on each coach)! They seemed not care about having all the wheels off the ground, sure looked unsafe too me!
They weren't THEIR coaches...:E:E....Dennis
No.... They just don't pay any attention to "INTERNET myths", like most of the people on this forum. That and they probably know how each leveling system operates, and look them over before trusting them to support the weight.
Agreed.

Maybe your rig is an exception, but it's my understanding that most levelers/stabilizers aren't designed to support the kind of loads put on them if lifting the rig clear of the ground....nor are those points on the rigframe where the levelers are attached typically designed/ equipped to bear such loads.

OnaQuest, I believe that when any vehicle sits on a grassy type surface over a number of years it will be much more susceptible to rust and rot than a vehicle being used. The ground moisture will be in constant contact with the rig whereas when used moving air will have a drying effect over the entire vehicle.

Careful. If those jacks have not been used in 6 or more years. Check the mounting area for rust etc or major rust on the jacks. Would hate to see one give out and fail with someone underneath.
