Question:

I have contacted you before about a viable and inexpensive solution to solve my leveling problem. However, it doesnt appear that any of the suggested solutions are viable. I have a 2021 Thor Axis 25.6 with no built in leveling. I dont know why but the front sits 4 inches lower than the back. If the ground is not level and I need a couple of inches of height in the front that means six inches....that is very hard to do. I am thinking about adding electric levelers to just the front. What are my options regarding that?

Hello again Roger,

I'm sorry, but I cannot recommend using trailer tongue jacks like the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944037 for leveling your RV. A trailer jack is specifically designed for lifting the front of a towable trailer, not the full weight of a self-contained vehicle like a motorhome. These jacks are mounted to a trailer’s tongue and are rated only for tongue weight, which is a small portion of what a motorhome's front axle carries. Since motorhomes lack a tongue structure, attempting to use a trailer jack on the frame or bumper is unsafe, poses a risk of structural damage, and could lead to instability or collapse. Proper leveling requires equipment engineered for the weight, geometry, and stability needs of your RV.

I do not have a cost effective electric option, but I do have the Leveling Kit with Wheel Chocks for Trailers and RVs # WS28ER. You just drive up on them, drop the chocks in, and you are good to go.

What do you think about this option?
