- IAMICHABODExplorer III tried the Lego type blocks but found that they broke to easy and were a pain to setup when you don't get it right the first time and had to drive off,re-stack, and make them higher,to labor intensive.
When I bought my RV,a former Rental, it came with Tri Level Ramps They don't break and if they are good enough to withstand the use in that market they must be good.
I have used them a lot and have had no problems and they are easy to use and store. I have 6 just incase but never have used them all,4 is the most I have ever needed,most times just 2 if at all,they were for the rear duallys.
I found that The Tri leveler work very well.
Google - prolandsurveyorExplorerI just bought a former rental also
- IAMICHABODExplorer IIThat sounds great, please come back and share with the others on the Rental Thread
- DrewEExplorer III have a collection of various lengths of PT 2x10 ramps (cut with angled ends) that I stack as needed. They are inexpensive and easy and sturdy, but not particularly lightweight or compact to store.
I aldo constructed a little ruler calibrated to go with a beam level that shows how many layers are required to be level. One side is for left to right leveling, the other for front to back. Making it involved some math (ratios in similar triangles, basically, which works out to the height of a ramp scaled by the ratio of the length of the level and the wheel track or wheelbase of the motorhome.) - Rog___NanExplorerHad Big foot levelers installed. Have had them on our A for over 20 years. So had them put on our C also.
- tenbearExplorerI have installed levels to tell me how much I need to raise each corner and I carry several 2 x 8 pieces of wood to drive up on. Easy to use.
- ksg5000ExplorerLike Drew E - I carry some wood planks. Inexpensive, works every time, and I also use them as DIY ramp to lift my car for oil changes.
- maulotaurExplorerWe just purchased our used 30' last year. So far been using the lego blocks with some extra wood planks.
Have been looking into putting Lippert scissor jacks on it, but the rep said that it would not work. That they could only be used for stabilizing. Doesn't make sense to me. Each jack can lift 5000 pounds. Why would you need that kind of lift just to stabilize? Can anyone explain it to a newbie? - bukhrnExplorer IIII use the Lynx levelers, but unlike IAMICHABOD, I don't have a lot of problems with them breaking, except for the couple that I broke through my own fault.
- S1njinExplorerI also use the Lynx levelers. Never had one break. I've used them on my 2 32' C's and will use them on my 27' C.
For the rear tires I use this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T36KG42/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I spin them around so both tires in my rear dual configuration can ride up at the same time.
I also use Hosspads under my hydraulic levelvers; I don't like making my levelers extend a great deal so I get close to level w/ my blocks, and let the levelers finish the job nicey nice.
