We are looking for ideas and tips for leveling a 5th Wheel; side to side. The front to back is easy, especially with Intellijacks.

What do you's do to level side to side?

Installed a Camco level http://www.adventurerv.net/camco-acc...el-p-4317.html

on the pin box where it can be seen from the rear view mirror. As you pull into your site, check the mirror to see where the ball is, each mark indicates approximately 1" that you need to block that side of the RV to level it side-to-side. We use Lynx levelers, but you can use 2 x 8 cut about 10-12" long and 1/2" plywood just as well.

I use the yellow leveling blocks from camping world.

<DIV =sku-copy>Camping World Quote"Just stack the interlocking blocks together to the desired height and drive your RV onto the levelers. High-density, molded polypropylene construction withstands the weight of even large RVs. Blocks are bright yellow for high visibility and easier positioning after dark. Eight block set includes nylon storage bag."

Duey -- The yellow blocks or wood is good for under the wheels, but for the landing gear you can buy an adjustable foot for the landing gear nearest your up / down control. It is listed as Ultra Adjustable Foot at Camping World about $30.00
