Leveling Blocks vs jack pads
Upgrading to a larger RV with leveling jacks this time. We carried with us leveling blocks like this. Can I use these blocks as jack pads? Will they hold up? If not how about pads made from a 2x10? n...

We are in a very uneven site this year and the high points have a single 2" X 10" capped with a piece of plywood and the lowest spots have multiple 2" X 10"'s and a chunk of 6" X 6" on top. I'm guessing that there is close to a foot difference between high and low spots at the jacks.
With having 6 point level-up now, my concern is being on a unlevel site. I have no idea when they have to extend further then they can, I have to assume you just don't get leveled up until they can't make solid contact. I need to read the fine print on that.
I know a friend of mine mention he likes to use blocks regardless of level, just so he doesn't have them extended any further then needed .
That happened this trip for us. The auto level started flashing red and the low point jack didn’t deploy. I stacked several blocks under that jack, reset auto level and did it again. The second time everything worked fine.
