    These really work on my wolf pup single axle ,which had to be about 8" shorter. Got my wood from my local lumber yard, used in binding boards (free) .Hardware & binders less than $15. Very stable.

    I did this and added short 2x4 blocks for when on gravel, dirt or other soft ground to allow the braces to slide rather than dig in. When on steep uneven ground I use blocks to maintain 30-45°.

    • @rvgearandfar
      @rvgearandfar  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I thought having an adjustable set would be cool - but honestly -- haven't found one campsite where it would have been useful - the angle changes a bit but they still work fantastically.

      If you can't see the frame at all you may need to cut away some of the plastic underbelly to make an accesspoint in order to use this method.
