Just bought a 2000 Monaco Windsor 38 ft. Noticed when I got it home on a flat floor it leans right. The rear has two height control valves and I assume I need to raise or lower one. Does anyone know what the factory ride height is supposed to be and where they measure from? Most trucks measure plate to plate on the bags, is this how they do it on a Roadmaster?

Thanks newbe to the site and the RV world.

Andy do not use the air bag plate to set your ride height see the past below on the procedure for 2000 and below Monaco coaches.

Its not bad and seems to handle very well and has not been a big problem, but the full length Monaco mud flap seems to be too close to the ground or drag on the ground sometimes, and the coach simply looks low in the aft areas. Other owners have mentioned an ability to adjust this ride height, but I have no clue how to do this. My rig has HWH air leveling and I know that I can raise or lower the rear or front manually...... Is that what I need to do? I assumed that it should find the right travel height automatically and it must be out of adjustment. Can someone point me in the direction of a correction for this situation?

Gary I have a 2000 Dyn and I will past the procedure I used on my old 99 Dip and also a write up I posted a couple months ago on another forum of what I found in setting the ride height.

I will attach the file on your ride height that is 9.5 inches front and 11 rear and the old and new procedure. I stated in the RH procedure that I did a couple yrs ago that it was a couple inches difference but this time I measured it as accurate as I could and its 3 inches out
