Automatic or manual leveling kits
We have a new 2017 Thor Compass 24TX. What is the best leveling system to install on it?

Reading through the replies, some of you mentioned that your rig is unstable when parked. If your rig moves badly when someone walks around inside or rolls over in bed, it must also be unstable when driving. You should benefit in multiple ways with heavy duty front and rear stabilizer bars, something to think about.
Someone up higher mentioned having little bubble levels. I stuck on little bubble levels on our rig two near the driver for front/rear and left/right leveling to help maneuver the rig on an uneven parking pad. It is remarkable how often I can level our 24' rig by placing a front tire down into a dip or high up on a mound.
I also adhered Hoppy brand levels on each side of the rig by the rear axle, and one in the back dead center. They help a lot to determine how many Lynx blocks to stack. One mark on the level equates to one block. They help to ease the hassle of leveling.
This is a Hoppy brand level. Note the tick marks. One tick mark equals one inch.
One Lynx block is one inch tall. They are light weight and store compactly and cleanly. I also bought wheel chocks and top caps. Everything works well together.
