Should Wood Blocks be Used for Front to Back or Side to Side Leveling
Question:
i have had the out of stroke error, i know how now thanks to you guys how to fix that, but just how much board, block etc would you put under a leg? my main question is, is it more important to be level side to side or front to back, if i cant get it to auto level. which is worse on my slides. thanks in advance.

Expert Reply:
Ideally you want to be as level as possible from front to back and side to side. Since the jacks on the front of the trailer have more range it is typically easier to level front to back.
If you needed to use a wood block for leveling you would want to use that for side to side since that direction doesn't have as much room to work with in terms of jack stabilizers.
