hermanmullins Report post Posted November 6, 2017 On the older coaches when they wanted a longer coach they would extend the chassis and add a tag for support. To my knowledge they never had a way to raise the tag. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are preset and do not have the ability to move up or down from there preset point. This is a link to a copy of the owners manual if your's is missing. There is a section on how to properly weight a coach equipped with a tag axle. http://www.fleetwoodrv.com/resources/media/manuals/1998_SOUTHWIND.pdf Rich.
