Re: [a/s] Levelers



<< Do you usually get it level with one try?>>

Yes. 

 << And, since we have a tri-axle, I'm assuming levelers must be put under 
all three wheels?>>

Yes, I forgot about that.  With that big trailer of yours I imagine most of 
the spaces you camp in will be pretty level, I use the big blue level..... 
when you are parking just get out and tell hubby when the ball is centered.  
Sometimes just moving back and forth will take care of it.  If not, slide the 
levelers between the wheels.

The instructions say to build them like a pyramid.  I don't.  I just stack 
'em. No problems (so far) doing it that way....once I had them so high I had 
to put the truck into 4WD to climb up on them.  

Of course finding flat spots is the best way.

Don't forget to use your chocks!!!  I have 18 wheelers chocks.  I kept 
breaking those little yellow ones you buy at Walmart.  

I like the ones that you put between the wheels and then lever them tight. I 
don't have them, but think they would be the best as the wheels cannot turn 
when they are tight.
