Winter Storage

First winter for storing my 38DSO Travel Supreme.
It will be stored in a very secure,excellent storage facility.
The coach will be completely under cover, on concrete, but not enclosed.
How do most of you folks out there take the weight of your front tires?
Do you use the front jacks and just take some of the pressure off the tires?
Do you use the jacks , take the pressure off the tires and use appropiate blocks
under the frame to support the weight and then retract the jacks. The coach wont be moved for two or three months. Any advice would be appreciated. Regards!

I never have worried about it. 5 Years of storing a DP and never had a problem.

Ditto! I put rubber mats under the tires when parking for extended periods.
Slides in with jacks down and coach leveled.

FYI - one of my jacks goes down slow so I do not jack it up. If you do jack it up...check on it regularly so you don't have a jack go down a little....one jack that softens could twist your frame and cause the windshield problem. DO park it level though as over the course of the winter (time)....unlevel ground is hard on your coach.
