jack pads for motorhome
No camper dealers in my area so looked on the internet for jack pads. There is a lot of them out there each one a little thicker or thinner, and a little difference in shape. What do you use?

I use these. They are lightweight, durable, and come with a five year warranty. They are also easy to keep clean and will not rot. They will handle the weight of any coach.
These pads are 15\" x 17\" and 1\" thick.
Where did you get these? What brand are they?

The major problem with any commercial jack pad is the cost. If they are inexpensive they are generally not stiff enough. I made four pads using two lengths of 2x6 attached to a 12x12 piece of 3/4 inch plywood for each one. Very stiff. I have nylon rope pulls attached to one corner. I also have two one inch thick 12x12 nylon pads also with nylon rope pulls. The nylon pads are very stiff but expensive ($40 each). I use one or more wooden pads any time I think that the ground needs them. I use the nylon pads under the wood pads for winter time parking (four months) at our park in Florida. While the nylon pads were expensive, they get cheaper every year that I use them. They are virtually indestructable.
