"Lego" Style Levelers

I am new at this backing up, leveling stuff. I have a set of "Lego" style leveler blocks, but I honestly don't know how to use them. So, say, I back into a spot and the left side is not level. Do I put the levelers behind the left T@B wheel and then back up onto them without unhitching the T@B?

Thanks,

    Yup, that is just what you would do.

    You may also want to take a look at the leveler BAL makes. You basically slide it under the wheel on the lower side and crank it up, lifting the wheel to level it. I hear it works well with smaller trailers like our's.

    States the T@Bpole has camped, so far ;)

    Another tip that will work with your T@B and that worked well for me on my Little Guy was to install the stick-on or permanently mounted leveling bars either inside or outside your trailer. I mounted them inside my trailer after leveling up my trailer out in my driveway. Once you attain a level position and mount a nice leveling device it becomes a snap when you arrive at any campsite.

    This video also gives some decent and usable tips and advice on leveling trailers and how best to use your jacks.

    Thanks for the link to the video, Mike. One of my biggest fears of being a "newbie" is looking stupid as I am learning how to do everything. I am a visual learner, and being able to see how this is done is reassurance that I am doing it correctly. :\">

    Have no fear, EVERYBODY was there at one point or another. I was there last year!

    You will find that most folks in a campground will be happy to help, be it help with backing in or leveling or setting up camp. People want to share their knowledge, whether they camp in a tent or a big class A Provost.

    Great tip Sandra and I might have to look into a pair of the bubble levelers.
