Hello gbrown, I did the exact same thing that mcr1010 did. Here is my reasoning, The coach wts approx. 14500 pounds. So I figured that a 8 to 12 ton bottle jack would do the job. 2000 pounds per ton and only lifting 1 corner of motorhome. I have placed the bottle jack, 4 way and small tool bag in the front right hand compartment with a 1/2 inch piece of plywood under it. The plywood gives a little better base in case of loose or wet ground under the jack. I know this seems a little over kill to some, To me its better to have it than not.
