Don and jillhop,
From an unstable rock viewpoint: Note what I said above ... that's not my rig in the photo - just my kind of home made stairstep leveling blocks. I'd use short pieces of 2X6 boards in place of the rock! When you don't need any more lift than 4 1/2 inches, no prop is needed underneath the front edge of the stairstep block.
Also, you could easily build your stairstep blocks with 8 inch long step landings instead of only 6 inch long step landings if you're worried about not enough tire area being supported on each step level.
Don ... then how do you raise the whole back end when it's low? It's of course a tremendous tire overload to support only one tire of a dual set on a motorhome when leveling.

No, I've never needed to do both rear duals on passenger's and driver's side.
