Stablizer Block Handles
We use 6" X 6" X12" blocks under our stabilizers and front jack.
I like the larger blocks as I do not like to run my stabilizers down beyond 2/3's down as they tend to have more lateral flexibility beyond this point. Grabbing, picking up or carrying ( if they are wet or muddy) more than 1 or 2 of the 6X6 blocks can become difficult.
I added grab handles to the blocks made of woven tie down strap. Wal-Mart in their fabric section sell the strap by the yard. I picked up stainless finish washers and screws from Home Depot.
See enclosed photos.

These blocks were painted to prevent them from soaking up moisture while on the ground.
Hopefully these photos come through OK.
