First, when I need to level for a length of time I drive up onto ramps I have made from 2x12's I have screwed together. They are of different lengths and I can unscrew them to stack the boards where I keep them in the garage.

Secondly, I use the boards from the ramps and place under the jacks to give me more lift. I chock the front wheels and use the levelers. This lifts the rear completely off the ground. I only use this method when I need to extend the slides and only for a short period of time.
I like this idea. My driveway has a slight a grade. I do have an automatic leveling system which may work just fine. I don’t know yet as we haven’t taken possession of rig yet. I plan on backing in. If I end up with building my own, I would prolly use 2x10 for front wheels.
