Default Best Solution for Leveling Motor Home

I have parked my coach full time at a campground. The spot is not level and on one side I need to lift the back right side up 6-8 inches and the left rear is 4 -6 inch. I was putting wood on the ground to drive up on . My neighbor came over and said I don't need to put wood under all four drive wheels just the inside wheels. I thought it would be better to put wood under all four drive wheels.

What is the best way to level the motor home ?

Ron

I would put wood under all four tires. Otherwise, you will have too much weight on one of the dual tires.

Best to support all the wheels, even if they are carrying only a modest portion of the weight. Definitely support both inner and outer tires.

You should also make sure that the support completely covers the footprint of the tires. You don't want any rubber hanging over the edges of the support.
