Title: Passenger Side Tag Tire Won't Raise Off Ground

Friends,

A good friend of mine has a late manufactured 2008 42' Intrigue #12281.
His Ride Height has been checked and is to spec. When he raises the Tag the Passenger Side Tire doesn't leave the ground the Drivers side Tire clears the pavement as it should.
We know that the air supply to the Ride Height valves is shut off when the Tag Switch is engaged, so could his problem be a leaky Ride Height Valve??

Any other ideas please help us diagnose.

Thanks, Mike 03 Allure 1st Ave. #30898

Not sure if this applies, but, on many coaches a brake can is used and is hooked up to a chain that lifts the tag. Sometimes we notice that one side is got more links between the mounts then the other, sometimes the brake can isn't extending as far as the other, sometimes the linkages are worn. It helps to have the coach on a lift to see everything, or pulling the wheels off the axle helps....
