Leveling a Class C?

This.

We always support both tires of our duals equally. I think that is best practice.

It is always best to put both tires up on the levelers,thus evening up the load on the tires and the wheels.

I found that The Tri leveler work very well.

If you need to level the rears on a Class C be sure to support both tires on whichever side you are lifting. There is no problem placing blocks or other lifting devices under 2 or even all 4 rear wheels so long as both on each side are supported. In seven years I have never had to go higher than 2 yellow leggo blocks high and properly centered your tires are not going anywhere.

Jacks? What jacks? I don't have leveling jacks and they are not really common on smaller C's as best as I can tell.


And if the rear tires have to stay on the ground, and the rear is too low, how can a person level up?


Not clear to me what you are saying here.

I thought you had jacks on your rig. They have become popular on shorter class C's, FR 24 ft models have them .
Its ok for you to just place a board or two under the rear wheels. For added safety block the front wheels .
