How have you guys been safely getting under your Country Coach? With the air dropped and no longer having a building to use I need a safe way to access the underside. Can I block the frame and if so how without damaging anything? Thanks

Has anyone needed to replace the straps for the fuel tank. I found someone to make the straps. The bolts they attach to is another story. Does anyone have a source for the u-bolts?

I pull my coach onto a set of ramps to raise it, then dump the air bags. This is enough to allow good access.

I know some have used 2x10's layered for the ramps. I found some railroad ties that I use. It raises it about 8". Make sure you put ramps on both tires on the rear duals. I don't put them on my tag axle though.

Here are some pics that show the general idea:
