    push a button on the leveling system? Just kidding

    When I had bumper pull trailers I always had the issue of how high the jack in front would go. I finnaly made a 1 foot high foot for the jack that I put under it before unhitching. Remember when you make that foot it has to be stable, like having a wide base.

    We have a chance to moochdock again at our friends house. We did it once before but the jack is too short to level the trailer on their driveway due to the slant. I was able that time to use a bottle jack to hold up the trailer while I put more blocks under the tongue jack then raise it up to level. I tried that at another campground and had it slip off the temporary jack, very scary.
    Adjustable foot...most RV stores sell them.

    I second this advice. I had a cinder block give way while unhitching my previous travel trailer. Thankfully, the hitch was still over the ball and no damage done. Wood blocks are definitely the way to go.
