Congrats on the new 14RB… you will love it! It does sit really low but I have not had any problems with dragging the rear. However I have scraped the front tongue jack several times on parking lot dips and rough roads. I'm going to shorten the jack tongue this week by about 2″ to allow more clearance up front. I thought about the axle flip but was afraid it might affect the handling… it pulls like a dream right now. Enjoy your new home away from home!

Aleking,
We haven't picked up our 14RB yet (still a few weeks away), however our previous Jayco TT set fairly low too. Once in a great while it would scrape a bit turning into driveways if the driveway had a deep gutter in the curbing at the street. Other than noise it wasn't a problem. As for the sewer hookups, the Jayco's were mounted low too, but the only problem I had with it was simple getting myself low enough to do the deed. This time around, I'm planning on purchasing a pair of soft rubber knee pads that I can slip on to make this task easy.
I'm going to wait and see if the height is a problem with our 14 and if it is, then determine what to do about fixing it or at least reducing the problem.
Welcome to the forum and best of luck with your Sportsmen.
