Because I'm using the Ramble levelers and had the B@l left over from my other campers. Decided to stick with the Ramble and sell the B@l. They work better than the Ramble but are heavier and bulkier.

I'm having trouble finding anyone who has the Ramble levelers. Camping World was out of them but with all of the talk of the Andersen Weight Distribution hitch look at their leveler located here: 3604 - Camper Leveler
I'm looking for the orange triangular leveling blocks in this photo. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Dave
That picture is of my trailer. I purchased the levels at Camping World. Are they out of them on-line? I also have a set of the Bal levelers that I could have used this week. The Ramble levelers are 3" tall and that wasn't enough to get level three days ago. I added a bunch of wood on top and underneath to get high enough to get level. The Bal levelers go much higher. Jim, do you know how high they go?

it lifts 9", but remember the higher you go the more tilt you put on the wheel, I'd guesstimate 6" is workable. I carry a shovel and sometimes I "dig" out the high side to keep the inequality within the 4" limit of the blocks. Have you considered that option?

We have a BAL from our previous trailer and last summer at Yosemite, Crane Flats, we had a terrible site and had to raise the trailer 8 inches on one side. I really didn't like going that high even though the BAL was anle to. I don't like the weight of the BAL for the number of times we had to use it. The leveler from Andersen goes up 4 inches. If I need more than that I need a different site!

Jim, are you talking about the plastic levelers when you say, "blocks"? They are 3" tall. I would probably put a 2x4 across underneath the back of a BAL leveler to make up for some of the angle. The site I'm currently camped in that was a problem with the plastic ramps is at about 5 inches of required lift. The BAL Levelers are great but really heavy and I don't want to re-spend for the lighter aluminum version.
Yes the orange blocks. Do not know if they can be supplemented with the plastic yellow square blocks out there, don't see how that would work, so I guess the 2x6 board is worth carrying, I'll put one in my truck, still lighter than the 2 B@l's.
