Rick,After your coach has "settled" walk around and look at each tire. If the top of the tire is touching (or almost touching) the top of the wheel well, then it is probably down as far as it can go (all air is exhausted from the bags). But just to be safe, go inside, turn on the HWH panel, and push the DUMP button. If the coach doesn't drop any more then it is truly bottomed out.At that point, if you can still squeeze under the coach, then go for it.By the way, trying to get under the rear of the coach when it is in the condition above (down on the stops) is a good experiment. If you ever have a serious air system failure that requires emergency roadside replacement of your air dryer, the coach might end up down on the stops. Could you get under there to work on the dryer? Might be a good thing to know. Ask Don (Don & Tys) about this scenario. Quote Selected

Very heavy duty (and HEAVY). You need 4 chocks so you can chock two tires from rolling either direction.Ironton 2-Pack of Rubber Wheel Chocks with Eyebolt — 6 1/2in.L x 3 3/4in.W x... Quote Selected
