I am at a loss for a place to store my leveling blocks when traveling. they are about 4 ft long and 6 inches high and 12 inches wide. Any ideas?

Mark, you live in Illinois, store them in your garage. Very Happy

Use the bags to level up.

Normally that would work but my favorite camping spot at rend lake slopes away from the road to the lake. It drops about 10 inches from front to back of the coach. I can make up about 5 inches but need some blocks for the rest.....

Or get some of the Lynx Levelers (or equivalent) such as
those sold by just about any supplier of RV accessories.
They come in a storage bag and individually could be
stowed in the LPG compartment.

Once while camping on the Mississippi River I could not get quite level. Bought a set of those and used them. that was in 04. Never used them again and finally took them out of the coach last year. They might work for you Mark and much easier to carry.

Sully,

I don't know if that's a good idea with rag wall tires and I KNOW it's NOT a
good idea if you all steel belted radials.

I can't remember the number but if the inflation pressure of a steel belted
radial tire is dropped to some % below the correct pressure you're supposed
to take it off the rim and inspect the steel belts.

Regards,
Rob M.
