Photos of Big Foot Levelers

Does anyone with a Sprinter have pictures of Big Foot levelers; nice if I could see a Thor Siesta with a side view. I’m Wondering how close to the ground they are when not extended.

I never hit my receiver, my skids are about 1 ft below that. You need to consider that the further from the rear wheels, the lower your kayaks get to the surface, It’s not the bumper clearance on...

Leak

Look at your seals and check that they don’t have foreign debris. You should get some RV rubber seal conditioner and treat them. If you want a quicker answer suggest going to the Siesta Facebook page.
