Automatic levelers on uneven ground
We camp a lot on uneven ground. We are looking to buy a new fifth wheel and we are looking at the automatic leveling option. how much grade will the automatic levelers compensate for?

You may need blocks under the level jacks on a typical site.
If site is totally out of whack you may need boards under wheels for level system to function effectively.
I seldom use/need boars however I keep a couple around for the rare times I need them. Board use is more a function of the site vs. the system. If the site is relatively level boards are not required.
If level system lift wheels off ground I will always put boards under wheels.
I am not confident that RV is designed to be supported totally by jacks with wheels floating in mid air.
Floating wheels may not be an issue but I prefer to take the better safe than sorry approach. I just don't trust the frame to support the rig with wheels off the ground.
