Had the carmteck levelers for 2 years. No stress cracks or problems at all. The pads get worn out from the rocks but that’s expected. You can just get some rubber from an industrial supply store after they wear out. Great review Ross, you’ll have these forever.

These look great, mine don't have the little grooves for the two parts to lock into each other. However, my brand came with anti-slip mats as well, which tore up very early on. They are pretty useless, although needed in many places. Thank you for this review.

These types of levelers work great if you have enough space between your wheels. My travel trailer has torsion axles and isn't so lucky with about 3" of clearance between the tires. Now, I still use the Andersen levelers, but I had to cut them down to where they start at 1" thick. Which is generally where they break anyways, so win. lol If I have to level less than 1" I just don't worry about it.

There are more buying options for ramp levelers now. It used to be the expensive Anderson brand were the only ones available. Years ago I built one from some 2x12 wood from drawings I found online. I only need one for my single axle trailer. They cost me next to nothing and are more robust than the red ones and they work great.

Thanks - I enjoy your videos and have learned so much. We just purchased a double axle trailer after having a tear drop. My husband I are having a ‘discussion’ on whether or not both tires on the side need a leveler under them. Can you put just one leveler under one of the tires? He thinks so. My concern is safety and whether it is bad for the camper. Thank you

Probably a stupid question, total newbies here. We just bought these levelers. Let's say the campsite is level. Can we use these behind say the left and right rear wheels to use them as actual chocks while putting in regular chocks on the front wheels?

I recently tried to level using levelers on soft sand (one side, other was firm). The levelers I used simply dug into the sand. The rubber backing also came off. Tried blocks & they also dug into the sand. In this situation would a small sheet of plywood be helpful? Does it make a difference going forward or reverse when leveling??
@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS
Жыл бұрын
Excellent question Glenn. Have never been in sand. It would make sense to increase the surface area with a board, but therein lies the problem with the limited space in an RV. Even in sand if you do get level, I’d imagine that it will sink enough with movement in the rig over time to where it would become unlevel. No easy fix for trying to level in sand, but hope you had a good trip. Leveling front or back makes no difference. I choose one or the other based on where I want the rv to be placed when I’m level. For example if I have a little room to move back, I back on the levelers.

I know 5th wheels come with leveling systems, thats not what I asked you. You still need to level a travel trailer, and travel trailers outsell every other type of RV every year by far...

Every rv manufacturer distinguishes the hitching type of a towable by "travel trailer" or "5th wheel." EVERY SINGLE ONE. You can call a 5th wheel a travel trailer all you want, but if you go to ANY manufacturer site and search by "travel trailer" you will NOT see results for "5th wheels." Ever. Your inital question was why you would "fk" with leveling ramps when you have a auto-level system. You wouldn't. These are for trailers without auto-level systems. I think you're smart enough to know the difference between the 2 but are choosing to be difficult. I feel that I adequately answered your question. You have a great day!
