As much as I hate those remove before flight tags people love to put on cars in car shows I may have to resort to something of the sort!

When I park my coach I put 4x4 blocks under the bogies. This allows my coach to be a little closer to level on my driveway and takes the weight of the rear suspension.

I came up with a really cool bracket that allowed me to clip the 4x4 onto the bogies, the air down without thinking about it. She just sat down on the blocks with a satisfying thump.

Problem is I left them both attached on last nights test drive.
At least now I know what those 2 loud clunks were....Funny that I barely felt running over the 4x4s. Seems my bracket cant handle 60mph freeway driving.

Now where is that phone number for Acme?

If you didn't have one bounce through your black water tank, you had better
pull a Tim Tebow <VBG>
