Frame popping noise

2025 Avenue 32RLS. I've noticed that when lowering or raising the jacks to either hook up or unhook, there is a popping noise coming from the frame somewhere.
It is not consistent or steady, Just a random popping noise. Usually only happens 2-3 times. I have heard it before from the other 5th wheel I owned but just thought it was "pressure" being applied to the frame when raising or lowering it.
Anyone know for sure what it is? Has amy one experienced this before?

Thanks in Afdvance!!

Happy Glamping!!

My creeks, moans, and pops every time. Thing makes more noises than I do.

Have you lubed your suspension system lately? The noise could be originating from there as the height of the rig changes. In addition to lubing my wet bolts, I spray some WD-40 in between the individual leafs of the springs.
Another possibly would be to check the torque on your landing gear mounting bolts.
Just a few things to consider.
