Levelling twin axle vans.....?

[craigmurray]

Im hoping someone can give me divine wisdom and intervention, i have a sterling trekker twin axle van and up till recently been lucky with the sites i have been to with getting the van level side to side. We have now found a cracking adults only site we like to use, but i have to level the van side to side. I have bought the ramp things which are great except i can only get the one in front of the first wheel and not in between the two as well. I was wondering if anyone does short stumpy ones for twin axle vans? does it damage yr suspension driving up one ramp? thanking you all in advance, HAPPY HALLOWEEN..........

Hi Craig

I have found the cheapest and by far the easiest way is by using three lenghts of decking each long enough to hold both wheels, just over a meter and each one 4inches shorter than the other. it is far easier to pull the van onto planks than up short plastic ramps.

Hi Craig

Agree with Allen, it is so easy to pull the van onto a solid wooden 'plank' and as he says you can vary the height by adding more 'planks'. Very solid and easy to use. I use a piece of timber just long enough and wide enough to fit both tyres without them hanging over the edge. For me storage is also easy, into the side access locker which leads into the storage space under the fixed bed.
