You could use some pieces of 2X8s under them. Sometimes the ground isn't level enough and I will do that.

Welcome!


You learn something new every day. Today I learned Sebring is a town and not just a type of Chrysler.

Unless you were into Road Racing, you may have never heard of the place. Don't blink or you will miss it![emoji16]

Lets not continue to hijack this thread with these false assumptions. The OP asked about leveling and the advice has been given to put blocks under all the levelers (not just the rear ones). It's that simple. Now please move on to helping and welcoming this member.

I'm pretty sure cavie was referring to the 1st post.
Putting blocks under the OP's leveling jacks, who asked for leveling hacks.
Kinda of an over-reaction .

Learn to use the quote button in the future and you will avoid lots of confusion.
My post means for you to put leveling blocks under ALL your jacks all the time. They prevent the stands from sinking into the ground. Some will need one some will need 2 or 3. You asked a question and I answered it. I happen to like Chrysler Products. I drove a 2001 Dodge Dakota 10 years before I got tiered of it. 4.7 with a 5 speed manual trans. LIL Hot rod. My first car was a 1956 Desoto. I am curious where you got your attitude?

I just do not see the negative ... putting blocks under your levelers is a common procedure and recommended to level your camper/RV .... and Sebring is a town in Fl not just a Chrysler ... I live in Fl so I already knew that ... I say No Worries

If you read the entire thread, you’ll understand this thread was a train wreck of misunderstandings, major jumping to conclusions, lack of use of common forum tools, a less than positive attitude and did I mention misunderstanding/misreading, etc. We also had the confusing of the OP and a posting member. Yes - no worries - nothing to see here.
