I really don't have the answer that I was looking for and that is probably because I was not clear.
I will be leaving the Bighorn for 6 months on a concrete pad on the beach in Florida in a high wind area. Unrelated but it will have to be strapped down to the pad. I want to raise it 3-5" so I can take some of the weight off the rubber. I plan to use a bottle jack on the frame with concrete blocks and a piece of steel to support that jack. When I get it up I will place blocks with 2 x 8's between the blocks and the frame. I will do this with the trailer hooked to the truck.
After that is done and level from side to side I will level it from front to rear with the landing gear and stabilizers.
1. Where do I place the jack on the frame
2. Where do I position the blocks and
3. What if anything am I missing?
I could ask these questions of the Parts Department but I am not sure that they can help me other than sending me a link to the Lippert page.
But I could be wrong - it would not be the first time today.
