Usually under the rear of the coach and will have a crank system to lower the spare down to the ground. If you wish to store inside, I have seen them placed under the bed if room permits.

I suggest you contact Jayco Customer Service at (800) 283-8267 if the information isn't located on builder's plate on RV interior wall or in a cabinet. Have your VIN ready to give for accurate information.
Somewhere either on the lower body line or under the body line near the frame around the middle of the slide, you should find a small diameter hole, maybe about 1 to 1-1/2", for a specific crank handle to be inserted. If on the body panel, it should have a rubber grommet/O-ring to identify it. If on the frame, no grommet but the crank will fit through it to reach into the inside of the frame to engage to motor manually. Depending on the specific location, it could be between tires or within the fender well of the tire. If the slide is already out, it should be much easier to spot the insertion hole on the frame. That motor is attached to the frame for rigidity and support either directly or by a sub-frame section. Don't be affraid to stick your head up under there with a good light source to find it.
Hello, Tom.
seems to have multiple issues with your RV. Depending on the model and type of RV you have, the location and number of motors will vary. If you have a way to look up from under the unit with the covers removed, it may be visible within the framing of the coach, however, if the slide is on an upper area, like the front of a 5th wheel, you may have to remove a panel or interior siding/trim to access. The unit should have a manual wrench, of sorts, to open and close if you lose power or the motor quits working. Look up Forrest River online and you should be able to get more information or specs from the Mfr.
If you want to pay full retail + more, contact Keystone. If the brackets are still there, you could mount a wooden cutting board to the hinge brackets. If you need brackets, they are available at home improvement stores. A section of matching or contrasting countertop can also be purchased there.
you must have tires on the vehicle and the tire size is molded into the sidewall of the tire case It will read something like ---195/65R15
tire size approved for the vehicle will be on a decal at the drivers door opening , on the door section, door pillar, door edge or in the owners manual specifications
If it has one it will typically be located on the drivers side (road side, off door side, etc.) of the coach. Usually in the same general area of the water inlet, shore power connection.
