Ok thanks. So you park, check to see if it is level, then put the board or levelers down and TRY (??) to hit these (ha ha), check level, if too high or too low then drive off, remove or add boards/levelers and do it again. How many times does it usually take for a professional (not us - ha ha); one or two times? Thanks! :)
If you look at the level, you can see how far off the trailer is. Lynx levelers add 1" per block. And after just a few times, you will be able to tell how many it takes to raise the low side to level.
As for hitting the leveling boards. Not to big a feat, Depending on which way you need to go. You lay them behind, or infront of the tire with the block touching the tire. And with a Lynx lock, and chock, You lock it to the leveler, and it will stop you when you are on the block. Easy Peasy.
Once level, place a chock on the opposite side of the tire, Chock the other side of the trailer. Unhook from the TV. Level front to back, and drop the stabilizers down snug, Don't try to lift the trailer, that is not what they do.
Then install the x chocks if you have them, and hookup the electric, and water. Done.
BTW. You want to raise BOTH tires on the low side, you will need blocks under both tires.
