Hi All,
New to the RV life, learning as I go. We had to have help placing our 34" RV onto this site.

The issue is the RV is leaning 1 bubble level lower on the left, slideout side.
This prevents water from fully draining from the shower, and may cause rain water to remain on window frame ledges.

Can I use jacks and stands under the axles to level it, and then lower the stabilizers?
Or do I have to hook it up and move it to place pads or boards under the wheels, as the manual describes?
Thanks in advance,
ChrisM
 
you don't want to jack anything, this can twist the frame and cause many issues, doors not closing, etc. the manual is correct, the proper way is boards or pads I always had the leggo style pads
 
The manual for my cargo trailer tells me not to place a jack under the axles.

The easiest way to level is to drive onto blocks.

However, this information should be known before you bend an axle.
