Blocks

I use blocks under the stabilizing jacks and tongue jack. I don't like just throwing them in the pass through, pretty messy to do that.

The holder that I made for the 2 x 6 blocks is shown here. I made the 1/4" plywood spacers so the blocks will dry after a rain. The PVC pipe is glued in to the block that is mounted on the frame.



  • The white ties are not UV resistant and will break. I do like the concept.

    Might want to rethink using those zip ties to secure platform.
    Sun will make them brittle in no time......snap while in transit. Blocks/platform bouncing down highway--------YIKES!
    Bolted to tongue or metal straps.


    ......or maybe 2 additional straps.
