Brad,

The fellows will correct me if I am wrong, I am sure.

I was pretty sure those were slide supports.

I believe the general concensus is that they are NOT needed, and in fact, could be trouble with a big T.

We have had our slides out for 3 months at a time, and no supports.

I believe once of the concerns is, what happens if, heaven forbid, our great tires go flat while you are sitting there. Now, what happens with those supports??

There are probably some other arguments against supports, use your best judgement, they are something rarely seen in the Rio Grande Valley where thousands of Winter Texans gather for the winter months, and we all pull em in, set em up and leave em set for 3 to 6 months. In fact, I will have to say, I am not sure I have ever seen a set used in any of the parks we have been in in the RGV.

Enjoy that unit, and hey, let us know bout that paint job in 6 months, a year, year and a half, etc.
