Tremors and Campers let's talk camping!!

This bag is a must. Look it up and watch the video.
I have this as well. Great set up. Also get you one of these. Makes leveling a breeze.

I have been looking at those for 2 summers now... How was the setup and how accurate is the app and the whole process?

Setup was very easy. You have to level the camper manually, then turn it on. The app is very intuitive. Make your settings which it walks you thru and boom done. Then when you get to your campsites turn it on and it tells you where and how much your low/high.

Thanks! Right now I use a 2' level inside the door and either my wife or daughter telling me when to stop for side to side and then again for final adjustment with the tongue jack. I have done a couple of setups on my own and this would make life much easier :)

Definitely will and its saved my marriage more than once.
 
Side to side at the wheels and front to back at the hitch. Block your tires and cinch the stabilizer no more then a 45* angle. Then you can use those “tire clamp” things to really lock into place.
Side to side is not an issue. The driveway slopes toward the road, as most do. The hitch is fully extended and on a full set of plastic blocks and still not level on the driveway. If I put a leveling system under the tires it will lift the nose even further. This was the only way I could handle it in my driveway. Even the back ones are fully extended, but I will make blocks for them as well. So if as mentioned above only extend to 45deg then I will have to make my blocks twice as thick as I did the first set. Can someone post a pic of your setup in your driveway?

Do another block on the hitch

I building one out of 2x12 now. Cut a 10‘ down to 12x12 pieces. Stack and screw them together and going to router a 1/4” deep circle in the top for the tongue jack’s foot to sit in.

Just get length of 6x6 and cut it into 18”-24” blocks. Screw a couple handles into the ends to easily carry. Keep it simple

I think I got it where it needs to be in the driveway. Perfectly level. Still need some more leveling blocks for out of the drive but I’ll pick them up later.

I appreciate the input provided by the community here!
Dthiss--does it "feel" any more stable with the blocks in place?

Henry,
it didn’t really feel unstable the other way, but I feel better now that I created the 2x12 block set under the tongue jack, so I guess the answer is yes. I also appreciate all the input from the members on here. Thanks a ton guys.

Looks really nice! ?? You can never have enough leveling equipment. You never know what you will need at camp. Cut some wood up for the side to side at the wheels. I use 2x12 and make a few different lengths. Some good information on YouTube for that. Congratulations again! My family has become so tight after all of our camping adventures. Wishing you the same.
 
Nice looking set up !! Congrats! My wife loved the Jayco Eagle. We just purchased a '21 Jayco Eagle 340DROK at a MN dealership. Just waiting on the 6.7 Tremor. Big plans for the summer!

What kind of hitch set up did you go with?
