Question New to Thor

I recently purchased a Quantum RQ29. Great RV compared to the 25ft Tioga we had. But I am having an issue with the levelers being too low. I was wondering if any one else has had this issue. They actually scrape a lot of the road speed bumps. I'm afraid of tearing one off.
thoughts please.
thanks
Tim

Welcome to the forum. I have the same model as you. I've wondered about the clearance of mine, but in looking at other coaches it looks like they hang down about the same. So far I haven't had them scrape anywhere. We'll see if anyone has any thoughts.

Welcome aboard!
Can you get a measurement of the clearance, and let us know what it is?

Clearance on mine is 6". It looks like the height can be adjusted, but before I do anything I would need to know how far they extend. Curious to know what the clearance of others is.

Went to the RV yesterday (can't store it at home) did some other measuring. one side I measured the levelers and they were 4.5" the other side was 5" but this is a graveled lot. so lets just say 5". I don't think that this is enough clearance. Thoughts?

I measured from the top of the step to ground (resting) and then put down the levelers . I actually listed the vehicle off the wheels. with this I went from 8.5" to a whopping 15" height. most of the campgrounds here in British Columbia have leveled each site very well. I have manually lowered the levelers just to stabilize the RV while hopping in & out.
