Tim,

Your coach may not have skid plates welded to the frame like mine does.

It being a 2000 model it may have rollers on the back end. Mine has skid plates welded on the front frame under the generator box and in the rear on the frame that supports the engine.

Contact Newell and ask them where to place a bottle jack or wood oak blocks so that your coach will not come down on you if an air line bursts! They are better at that sort of thing than I am. Also, different model year coaches may have different support points.

This is the most important thing that you can learn about your coach. Take the time to get it right; you'll be glad you did.
