Leveling Trailer

This morning I went to work early, and stopped by the Surplus Store and bought a load of lumber for 25$. In the evening, I took it home and cut some of it up to make blocks to level the trailer with:


Well, Beth cut some of them, but since she was running the camera, most of the pictures are of Tobias. But here is one of her cranking the jack to get the trailer level:



We jacked up the trailer and put jack stands and blocks of wood under it in several places:
 We had to adjust it little bits to get it all level and flat. (but the back end of the trailer was bowed upward, and we couldn't make it go down, so we will relevel it after we have some weight on it.)


Checking the level across the trailer:

Since I can't get this picture to rotate, you can tip your screen on it's side:

Now our trailer is pretty level, and is nice and sturdy. It is sitting on hard supports every 8 feet or so.
