Leveling with half of a Lynx block??
We use those Lynx blocks (they look like giant Legos) to level our trailer. Works well, does not slip, easy to store and to clean. But every so often, a stack two blocks high is not enough, while ...
Forum Discussion
rockhill mentioned the issue of slipping. Whether I put a piece of plywood under the stack or over it, the plywood does not stay perfectly in place. The Lynx blocks, of course, move as a unit, since they are interconnected.
That is why I think that the best solutions are (1) a thick rubber mat (which should not slip in contact with the blocks) or (2) putting the plywood under the higher tire if needed, in order to avoid the dreaded "in between the blocks" syndrome, described above.
I should add that since we do a lot of boondocking in very rough terrain, this whole issue is not just theoretical. We are not on a concrete pad, or even on gravel -- we are often on a mix of rocks and dirt.
Finally, since I am lucky enough to have a spouse who loves really remote boondocking, I will happily do whatever it takes to keep her happy - - if that means fiddling around with the leveling blocks, I will do that!! ;)
