ANDERSEN LEVELERS ?

These Andersen trailer levelers were mentioned in a thread recently. Checked them out online. Anyone using these and how do you like them? Says it can raise your trailer up to four inch's. Clever design. Any trouble comming off of them? My HTT is light and have used lego type blocks for years but they do slide on some surfaces and do not always guess correctly as to how many are needed. Any thoughts?

    I got a set last year and we love them. They don't slide like the blocks sometimes do. If I drive off the low side one will get trapped between the tires and I was skeptical that you could drive off the high side as they say on the website. I found that you CAN without them doing any damage.

    They work great though I wish I would have purchased the taller one's, I think they are around 6" tall, as sometimes the 4" ones just aren't enough. My trailer is a lot more stable when I use them and set the chock type blocks with a rubber mallet under the levelers, they seem to help take out the tire wiggle.

    I have them and they work perfectly - I couldn't recommend them enough. Very easy to use and ever since I got them I haven't taken the "legos" out of the bag.

    When you put them in, and start backing up on them, what is your setup to know when you are level? I can't see my level and back up at the same time.

    I usually roll up on mine all the way with the wife watching the tires and telling me when to stop so I don't fall off the blocks. Wife then walks around to the levels and tells me when to stop as I pull down the blocks and the trailer levels out. If I'm by myself I just eyeball the trailer as I pull on the blocks and get out and check a couple times.

    I ordered a set and used them once and found them a bit difficult to get the level right on, of course this was in a loose sandy soil so that may have been part of the problem. I haven't used them since.

    Maybe adding a level for side to side that is visible while I back up will help. My wife didn't seem to like using my level on the side of the trailer, like their videos show online.

    Each wheel takes two pieces right? So you guys are raising each axle right? To you buy two sets or ? Can't figure how many pieces come in a set. Think I may give em a try.

    I have an old popup that is cranky if it isn't level (pun intended). I wish I had bought Anderson's years ago. Much easier and quicker to get level than blocks or boards. I'm only dealing with one axle so if you have dual axles it will be more work.

    I use them and they really are a one man job.I mounted my large level on the drivers side front of the 5 er.I can see it and know when to stop as the bubble moves to level,or just a little high on the slide side as it tips that way when we put the slide out.they are well worth the price of admission.:B
