    Have a fifth wheel that I am putting in a park permanently. It has 6 self leveling jacks and the surface is all gravel. Should I lift the wheels off of the ground or not? Also, do I need bricks/concrete under the jacks if it is all gravel? Thanks.

    Wheel Torque Conflicting Information. Which One?

    I was told to check the wheel torque on my 2022 Rockwood 1940LTD after 100 miles. The sticker on the side of the camper says 100 ft/lb but Dexter states that the torque for my axle (D20, 2200lb) should be 75 ft/lb. 12" steel wheels. I'm leaning towards the dexter specs.. What do you think?
