Does anyone know the hitch height of a Coachman Freedom Express LTZ 191RB ?
I’m setting up a new hitch before we take it out for our first trip, my driveway is not very level, I can’t get a good measurement on it. I called Coachman and the man that I talked to was not sure.
Thanks

You don't really need level only "even". The rear ground clearance should be the same as the front, even when it's not level (measured from the frame to the ground). YOu can take those measurements even without hitching up, just use the tongue jack to get the clearance even and measure with a tape measure.
Good luck / Skip

The ground is not flat.
My suggestion. Pull it out of the drive, and slowly to a close parking lot. check it there.
You could measure from the ground to the bottom of the frame at the axles. Now go up front and figure out the distance from the bottom of the frame to the A-frame and the coupler. Then just add up the separate measurements.
