Leg leveler and landing gear pins

I had one of these on my former fiver and it worked VERY well. I don't use one on my current fiver as it has a hydraulic leveling system. However if my fiver didn't have this system, I would have purchased another leg leveler for it. I believe in using anything to make setting up easier and faster.

You still need to ask yourself if you =really= need that fine an adjustment if you already have the extending legs. The holes on mine are about 2" apart, so that's the =max= difference between the legs that can happen. I think these are just a money-making gimmick for a non-existent problem. Just my $0.02...

I have 3 10"x10" green treated pieces of plank I put below the two front legs, two are nominal thickness (1.5") and I planed the other down to 1". I put the 1.5" pads under the legs, drop them, and then lift them up to the next hole. If one leg has significantly more room under it than the other I replace the 1.5" pad with a 1" pad ensuring that side-to-side the front legs are within 0.5" of each other. Pretty sure that's good enough, you could invest in the screw adjuster if you wanted to be even more precise but I think it's overkill.

The Barker is simply a large screw that you rotate the pad to allows for fine adjustment between pin settings. Nothing rocket science here...

The item you are in question about is designed to help you allow for any difference in the ground levels between your two front RV legs. There are many times that when you try to lower your two legs in setting up your rig you will find the ground level is not consistent between the legs especially with a unit that has only one motor lowering the legs at the same time. The new bottom plate you would be installing on one of the legs has a rotating screw allowing the leg to be extended to a different length than the other leg to eliminate the variance.

From Camping World's website:

"Eliminates stacking boards to stabilize the front end of your fifth wheel. Install the Fifth Wheel Leg Leveler in under one minute on the front jack leg closest to the powerhead switch or handle. Then just rotate the number of turns necessary to provide the fine adjustment that is always required on uneven ground."

Not sure about the Baker brands, but generally all of the pull pins work the same. Lower the legs part way, reach under, pull the pin allowing the inner leg to drop, continue lowering the legs. If they are situated correctly you should not have to get down on your knees.
