Supporting camper with cinder blocks??
For my 2008 Lance 1181, is it appropriate to store the camper on cinder blocks on all four corners, with a 2x8 across the blocks, so the bottom of the camper is supported?

That's what I store mine on and just let the jack down until they barely touch the ground.
Not so sure I'd want my jacks supporting the camper all thru the winter.- There are cinder blocks that will do just fine for many years. Then there are cinder blocks... I’d avoid them. Supported just on the corners? I wouldn’t.
- I have a 2006 1181 and have always left it on the jacks. I have never been concerned with this as it was built this way. Of course many do and there are many contraptions to do so. I used to store my coachman ranger on blocks and wood but the weight was much less. A point to consider though is when the camper is sitting in your truck the entire weight of the camper is supported by the entire length of the truck bed with the exception of the overhang. Just a thought. Good luck!
