X2 mine slants/sags to rear due to leaf springs being so old, need new ones soon

Hi FLIGHTSIMMER,
I have the 2011 Itasca Cambria 30C and I was able to get the levelers as an option, I'm very happy that I did.

We have a 29 foot New Horizon TT. We spent the first two years with leveling boards. This spring we had Bullseye leveling jacks installed and we love them. They make setting up and tearing down much easier. The Bullseye system is electro/mechanical so one doesn't have to worry about damaging the hydraulic cylinders.

Anyway. get them. You will never regret it.

We had a 31' class C before the DP. It did not come with levelers as most did not then from what we saw while shopping. Didn't like the bounce when one of walked around so rather than hydraulic jacks or attaching scissor jacks we bought four automotive scissor jacks from Northern Tool. Smaller ones for the front since it was much lower. I cut the handle off one of the cranks to be able to use a cordless drill to raise and lower them. Kind of labor intensive so I only used them when we were going to be parked longer than a couple nights. They could only be used to level for a very small amount but we had Lynx levelers for big grades. They did help a lot to firm up the coach and were very reasonable.

A little older now and like many have said wouldn't be without jacks.

Put me in the group where I consider them a "must have" item. Both for the ease of leveling as well as stabilizing the coach.

I have heard that Mercedes/Freightliner/Dodge Sprinter chassis are specifically prohibited by the manufacturers from having levellers fitted. We briefly considered a View, but decided it was too small. Glad we didn't get one, as levellers are a big help.

Leveling jacks are only important if you want a level RV...
