Has anyone here installed new springs on the HWH levelers on their motorhome ??
One of my springs recently broke and I need to replace it. Upon checking the installation one end of the big spring attaches to the mounting plate of the leveler and the other end attaches to the base. When the leveler is in the down position the spring is bent over a fulcrum in the attachment which extends it. The spring tension then pulls the leveler back up into the horizontal position when retracted.
The spring is still under some tension even when in the up position and due to its size looks to be difficult to extend to attach.
Anyone who has done this have any tips ??
