Hey Phil! For a tandem axle trailer you will want two of the Leveling Kit with Wheel Chocks for Trailers and RVs #WS28ER. You are correct, one under each tire is best. I use these on my Jayco with one under each tire to keep them off the ground and…
First we need to find out if the problem is your tow vehicle wiring or your trailer wiring. To do this use a circuit tester like part #PTW2993 to test all of the pins on your 7-way for the correct function compared to the diagram I attached. Next use…

Red Traction Boards for cold-weather recovery
When a 2-wheel drive with street tires can't match 4WD grip, red traction boards make a smart backup, especially with a light rear end. Options in this group include boards that work great in extreme cold weather with a 3,500 dually and can withstand a lot of punishment and provide great traction. They can also raise the truck a few inches to make room for a creeper during an oil change.
Yes, they can be used to raise a truck a few inches to make it easier to use a creeper, like when changing oil. Place them on level, solid ground and keep the tires centered. Move slowly onto the boards and double-check stability before getting under the vehicle.
