Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Leveling Blocks
- How to Create a Larger Footprint on an RVs Leveling System for Soft Ground
- I have exactly what you will need to give the foot pads on your RV's leveling system a larger footprint for softer ground. For this, I recommend using the Stackers Leveling Blocks part # A10-0920. The Stackers blocks can be used for a variety of applications such as under the trailers wheels, under stabilizer jacks, or in your case under the foot pads on your leveling system.
The best feature of Stackers has reference to its name. The blocks can be stacked to give you the proper height...

- Since your frame is pretty far under the RV probably the best option would be a leveler setup with more lift so as to minimize having to put blocks under the legs like the Ultra Fab # UF39-941705 which can do 30 inches of lift.

- To protect the bottoms of your FasTen RV Leveling Blocks Item # CAM44525 and Item # CAM44512 when on gravel I recommend using outrigger pads like Item # 337OP18X18R. These are a durable rubber pad so whether you are using them on concrete or asphalt they grip the surface and you don't have to worry about water damage. I have included a link to all the outrigger pads we offer so you can take a look at the different option available.

- Yes, you can use leveling blocks to support your stabilizer jacks, I recommend the Ultra-Fab Leveling Blocks for Trailers and RVs - 8-1/4" Wide x 8-1/4" Long - Qty 10 # UF48-979051.
Not knowing the weight rating of the A frame jack I can not say yes or no. You will have to find out the weight capacity and tolerance of the specific jack.

- Considering the weight of your 24 fot Class C RV these Leveling Scissor Jacks, part # TJSCHD-24, should work very well for you.
As far as the stability of these jacks, like you said, you will want to have the wheels blocked so that if the jacks are down the trailer will not be able to roll. And for side to side stability, as long as the terrain is within reason you should not have to worry about side to side stability. These jacks are pretty heavy duty and should provide you with enough...

- I may have a solution for you, however as you mentioned in your question, leveling jacks like the Ultra-Fab Scissor Jacks # UF48-979002 are not designed to lift the trailer, but to simply stabilize a portion of its weight. There is not a trailer jack type leveling system currently available that is designed to actually lift the trailer.
I instead recommend looking at the Andersen Camper Wheel Chock and Leveler # AM3604. This is a great system that works as both a wheel chock and leveler...

- The Ultra Fab kit part # UF39-941705 would be a great option. This attaches to the bottom of the frame of your camper and allows you to independently control to jack legs on either side of the trailer to level and stabilize it.
I attached a review video for this jack for you to check out as well.

- I spoke with my contact at Andersen regarding the Camper Wheel Chock and Leveler # AM3604 referenced in your question. He stated that while the levelers are designed to work with most tandem axle setups, there are rare instances like yours where the tires are simply too close to each other for them to work without alteration. In these cases, the only real solution is to simply trim down the level as you mentioned so that it can fit between the tires.
If you do not wish to do this, a better...

- The bottom step of may trailers has a little spring to it as it is suspended so far from the trailer. Putting a block under it will definitely help but there are other options. There is a replacement step option that has the leveling feet to sturdy the steps like the TorkLift GlowStep Revolution Scissor Steps w/ Landing Gear - 4 Steps - 25-7/16" Base - 350 lbs # TLA8104. The proper fit will be based on the step mounting pattern and size they are replacing.

view full answer... - Can Scissor Jacks be Used to Level a 5th Wheel Trailer and Will it be Hard to Manually Crank Them
- Ultra-Fab Ultra Scissor Jacks # UF48-979002 are designed to stabilize and support a trailer. To do so they will push up on the trailer but they cannot lift the trailer up off the ground so keep that in mind. This is true for all scissor jacks.
Considering that the jacks will be placed where the trailer is the heaviest it would be difficult to manually crank the jacks. But if you used drill attachment # UF48-979005 and an electric drill it would make it a lot easier and faster.

- The Tire Grip traction plate # 288-07411 was designed to be used at the time of getting stuck so you wouldn't want to keep the RV parked on it. I do have an option that you can stay parked on and can also help with leveling if need be. Take a look at the 10 pack of leveling blocks # CAM44521. Several of these on the ground will provide a solid platform and they can be stacked to help with leveling. I have included a link to a video review for you.

- Only one set of the Fastway ONEstep Wheel Chocks # FA84-00-4000 would be needed to prevent your trailer from moving. And since you'd only need to install the levelers on one side of the trailer the trick would be to install the ONEstep on the higher side of the trailer and the levelers on the other so that you get the function of both.

- I have a manual option for you, but unfortunately there is not an electric leveling system or stabilizer rated for the 25000lb GVWR of your Class A motorhome.
In regard to leveling the motorhome you will want the FasTen RV Leveling Blocks w/ Carrying Handle # CAM44512 that you can drive on, and then to keep the motorhome stable when walking around you will want stabilizer jacks # UF48-979031 installed on the motorhome. These will bolt to the frame of your motorhome and keep it stable....
view full answer... - Are There Larger Foot Pads To Use On RV Scissor Jacks
- I do have an option for you but the Ultra-Fab Footplate for Landing Gear and Stabilizer Jacks part # UF17-940006 are made for landing gear legs, not scissor jacks. That said, they don't really make anything that would increase the surface area of the foot on a scissor jack so if this is what you need you would have to look at separate blocks such as the Stackers Leveling Blocks for Trailers part # A10-0916 for a quantity of four or part # A10-0917 for a quantity of one.
view full answer... - Can Stabilizer Jacks be Used to Lift RV a Little
- To answer the last question first, a stabilizer jack such as # JSC-30 would be used until there was just enough tension to keep the trailer or RV from rocking. For actual lifting you would need a different device. So assuming that the RV was level these stabilizers would help prevent it from rocking back and forth or side to side (depending on where they were mounted) while you move around inside.
If you were to try to lift weight with them you would have a very hard time because it just...

- The Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizer with Dual Motors # UF39-941705 that you referenced is capable of 30 inches of lift so it would easily work on your setup that has 23 inches between the ground and the bottom of the trailer frame. No blocks would be needed. I also attached a review video for this kit for you to check out as well.

The best solution we have would be to use the Camco FasTen RV Leveling Blocks # CAM44512 that you can drive on. Then you can use the Ultra-Fab Ultra Scissor Jacks # UF48-979031 to keep the motorhome stable when walking around.

view full answer... - Can Scissor Jacks be Used to Lift an RV 1 Foot Off the Ground
- Scissor jacks such as # JSC-30-IND are not meant to lift up vehicle or trailer so I do not recommend them for this application.
What I recommend is to use leveling blocks such as # CAM44521 for a 10-pack. You can drive right up onto these blocks though it may be difficult to get it up to a foot tall without using a bunch of them stacked like a pyramid.
Another option is to use a bottle jack such as # ALL640405 to lift the vehicle and then use the blocks or jack stands to hold the vehicle....

- The individual jacks of the # LC358590 are not designed to support the full weight of your camper when installed. If you are on unlevel enough ground that a wheel is in the air I would recommend a leveling block like the # UF48-979051.
