What are folks thoughts on the use of cinder blocks in the front leg load train?
This weekend will be our second seasonal weekend where I usally re-adjust the front by adding two more sets of cinder blocks and a 4" x 4" spanning across the frame. I try to spread the front load across the 4 columns of block. This has always provided a very stable set-up.
Thanks!
I still can't figure out why people still block the front legs on their FW at all. Isn't that what the drop-extension is for? Personally, I use 1-2 "lego" blocks if I have any left over from leveling the axles and/or rear stabilizers, just to increase the footprint; a couple 2x4's side x side if necessary. Been wanting to screw a couple 12x12 1" pieces of plywood together to make feet, but have never got 'roundtuit.
