Jacks During Storage ??
I store my RV under a carport with a concrete slab. Should I store it over the winter with the jacks down, taking most the weight off the tires, or no ?

I don't know what system you have but the following is from the HWH FAQs:
54. Can I store my coach with my jacks extended?
Yes, this will not hurt the system.
55. How long can I leave my coach parked with the jacks extended?
As long as you want. We recommend operating the system occasionally if possible.
56. Do I need to do any maintenance on the jacks or slide-outs while the vehicle is parked with the jacks and slide-outs extended?
There is no necessary maintenance for the jacks or slide-outs while the vehicle is parked. If desired, WD-40® can be used on the jack rods right before storing the jacks if dirt has collected on the rods. Refer to the following link for jack maintenance information ml47149.pdf.
57. If I’m parked for a month or two, should I occasionally operate my system?
Yes, it is good to operate the system occasionally but it is not required.
