Leveling

I use these RAMBLE leveling blocks that I got from CampingWorld. When I went to buy another set of them, CW had a 10-pack that looked like a knock-off that did not look as good. I went to the store's resident expert who said that the RAMBLE blocks are a much better product. I bought another set of RAMBLE blocks. I've had a rear corner lifted 4 inches with them. Just make sure that you put blocks under both tires. Don't leave the inside tire hanging.

:S
OMG. WHEN did Camco switch to making their blocks with those waffle strips?
They used to be completely SOLID leveler blocks that didn't break.

What were they thinking to change them to the same way the Lynx blocks break? :S

This proved very difficult and I would like to hear from others how you handle this problem. When we had the trailer, it was relatively easy. Any comments would be helpful.

Do you have leveling blocks?
It is relatively easy to use the leveling blocks for a Class C to get it level.

**albeit these are the ones that break apart easily

I would only suggest that you don't buy the open waffle type buy the solid yellow ones. I have gone thru 4 sets of the Lynx Levelers. They break up especially if using them on soft ground like the sand in Florida.

I have since then invested in Ramps and they seem to be a bit easier and working well in the sand.

The waffle type I bought a while ago are all distorted and bent out of shape. They still work in a pinch but I don't recommend you buying them.

I have found that these work very well,light weight and store well.

Leveling ramps

I also have a set of these for backup or to add to the others.

We use the Hoppy Levels to tell us how much we need to raise each corner to be level.

I carry several pieces of 2 x 8 boards of three different lengths so I can stack them. they are beveled on both ends to make it easier to drive up on them. Getting them under the dual rear wheels is sometimes a pain but that will allow us to raise any corner up to 4 1/2 inches. Usually if we are within one inch I am very happy and 2" is pretty good. To make the refrig happy it only has to be within about 6" but that feels too much for me.

make your own wood ramps. They don't sink in soft ground like plastic ones and are bomb proof. You can use 2x8 for ramp part and 4x6, and 4x4 to block it up. Make them so you just assemble as required at the site for flexibility. You can get much more lift from wood ones than any store bought plastic ramp.

In the few instances when we have been assigned a site that is way off level, we head back to the office and ask for a more level site. On the way back, we scope out empty sites so that we can ask for a site that we know is better. We do most of our traveling during the Spring and Fall when kids are in school, so we seldom run into full campgrounds.

Also, it isn't necessary to be completely level to protect the refrigerator and be comfortable living in the RV. If a site is within 3 inches of level, we don't bother with blocking up the wheels.
