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!!

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.

Thanks for the info. I will check these items when I get a chance. I picked it up Sep 9 and drove it storage. Week later had knee replacement so have not been able to get back out to the unit.
I would have thought that all of that would have been done during the dealer PDI. Ops there I go again assuming!!
Thanks, I hope that is all it is just normal noise. I will follow up when able and IF I can find this thread again<
Happy Glamping!!

We have the same popping noise coming from our MORyde Suspension on our new Avenue 23ML when lifting and lower the 5th wheel. Its annoying but I was told by the dealer this is normal noise?

You can just hit the bookmark icon, which is next to share, then click on your username, then bookmarks. No need to email it to yourself as the site software will save the reference.
