I level with air and do not dump all the air to do so. I pull in,, hit the level button. The coach stays more firm than if I dump air. By dumping air, now the coach is sitting on rubber bumpers inside the air bags plus a little air in some of the bags
The only positive way is to install jacks.

Hi Kiltedpig: X2 on the advice Don has given you. I had air leveling on my previously owned 2000 Monaco Windsor. It was only a 32' coach, but never had any motion after leveling using the air leveling system. Pulled into a spot and hit the level button on the pad. Usually leveled with just some air being exhausted out of the front or the rear air bags. Hope this info helps.

My 02 Signature only has air leveling. Once level it doesn't move around at all.

Hi! We have a 2007 Camelot 42’ PDQ. We have always used air leveling and there is little to no motion inside the coach. You can feel it when the dogs jump off the sofa but it’s just like the vibration you would feel at home. Is it possibly your leveling system that needs to be checked? I hope you can find a solution that will make your wife more comfortable.

Ditto on no movement after leveling, even when I dump air.

I think having the tag axle tires on the ground helps a lot.

For the OP'r, I've heard some say it feels firmer with the bags dumped, I've heard others say it's firmer with lot's of air in the bags. You will just have to try each way.
