Hi all -
Incidentally, I learned something from a campground owner this spring: He said to NEVER back a vehicle onto blocks for leveling (motorhome or towed vehicle) because the reverse gear doesn't have the same power or torque as the low gear, and you risk damaging your transmission.
I just love learning from those that have "been there, done that" a million times!

So you're saying, back up past where you want to park, put down the wheel ramp on the low side, and pull forward. Sounds like we can use those "lego" blocks and construct a ramp to suite the site. At times we've been in situations where one wheel was 6-8 inches higher than the other in order to be level.
Did a lot of checking into the Bal Tire Leveler mentioned on this board and decided to order it. Can lift up to 6.5 inches and can handle 3500 lbs per manufacturer. Best price I found was at Cabelas.com Liked the review at Camping World by a TM owner. It is attractive that you can get the trailer in place and then level.
