Heavy Duty leveling block suggestions

Hi,

I rarely use leveling blocks (under tires) but have had some opportunities where one side is a tad lower.

I have independent front jacks and the standard scissor jack that came with the CR3705 weekend warrior. I try not to operate the front jacks separate from one another as to not stress the frame. For the jacks I have been carrying the same 4x6 lumber pieces for 10 years and they have sufficed.

I have seen many variations of stackable blocks and to be honest, I can't believe these chinsy pieces of plastic hold up under the weight of some of these toy haulers I have seen them under.


What are some proven recommendations that some of you have used with success on the same weight trailer?

Thanks
Joe

    Wood blocks. 2x8
  • Been using the yellow Camco blocks for many years, and they work fine for us. They stack easily, and fit our tires well. No issues at all. This is on a triple axle 40 foot toyhauler.

    Tried the orange ones, but didn't care for them. The yellow ones stack back up and go in their carry back and store easily. Lighter and easier to handle than wood.
  • Well I was going to say i use the composite porch decking cut and stacked to appropriate sizes, but then you put the qualifier that it had to be in the weight range of a 37 footer (which i have no expereience with), so i wont say anything. ;)
  • Can't remember the brand but they are available on Amazon or Ebay, they are primarily used by motorhomes, our class A crushes those plastic blocks on the very first use. Not hard to find as they are roughly $25 each, we have 8 of them at $200 delivered to our front door, pretty heavy so free delivery is not an option.
