BAL 28050 Light Trailer Tire Leveler

Works great with an older pop-up camper. Easy to use, stable, and durable. I did replace the wrench right away, after reading reviews. Also put a bit of grease on the plate where the rod nests. Used this leveler for a busy season of camping, no issues.

This jack had rave reviews for good reason. It is simple to use and fits our 15" tires. Like the instructions tell you do NOT use a drill and it will only work for part of the work anyway. The ratcheted wrench that comes with it works great. It IS heavy and bulky, however, and with a popup tent trailer there is no extra storage room. So my engineer husband designed a super rack that he welded to the bumper of the trailer. When we fold our trailer down I will take more pictures to show the locking mechanism etc. We also liked the the fact that after lifting the trailer it acted as a chock. We had no worries that it would roll off.

This is a great leveler for a teardrop, squaredrop, or popup camper. It might even work with smaller traditional RV trailers if they have a single axle and smallish wheels. The unit is made from heavy tube steel and plate with a beefy screw mechanism for raising/lowering. Once you've got the leveler in place and engaged, it does double duty as a very solid wheel chock. This was part of the appeal for me. Trying to chock both wheels when using lego-style plastic drive-on blocks at a wonky site is difficult. I'm always afraid my trailer will roll off of the blocks. The BAL leveler eliminates that concern. If you need the full 4" of rise, expect to spend 5-10 minutes with the included ratchet wrench. It takes a lot of turns to reach full extension. In spite of rating this a 5, I had to return it. My trailer has 215/75R15 off road tires, and those turned out to be too big. When I did a test fitting at home, I was able to get the leveler in place in my mildly sloped gravel parking pad, but only after digging some of the gravel away on the uphill side of the tire. This should have been a red flag, because if you're on bedrock, concrete, or asphalt, you can't dig anything away. On our first trip to a state park RV jungle (ugh), the pad was asphalt and half a bubble off level. I was not able to use the BAL leveler - couldn't get it under the tire because of the slope. So we spent the weekend listing slightly to the left :). Thankfully, this was 29 days after purchase, and there was signal at the campground, so I was still able to initiate a return. I think for this device to work reliably, you should have at least an inch of clearance between the plates and your tire on flat ground. I'm not docking any stars for this, because the item description is technically correct ("fits 13, 14, and most 15 inch tires"). But it'd be really nice if they would instead publish minimum and maximum tire diameter measurements.

My family has been using pop up campers since I was a child and I have finally purchase my own! I have a 2011 Jayco Jay 1007 that has a gross weight of about 2,950 lbs. I am a bit new to towing a vehicle. Moving forward is no problem for me now that I've taken a few trips and gotten used to making wide turns and using my mirrors! However, backing up is a whole new world that makes me a bit anxious and causes me to use an abnormal amount of curse words; I want to do as little of it as possible. After going on a few trips with the Jayco and having to go through the process of leveling by adding/subtracting pieces of wood under my low-side tire (back up, pull forward, repeat), I knew that I wanted a simpler solution. The BAL Tire Leveler is that solution! Here are my thoughts: Things I like: * Simplicity. I maneuver myself into the campsite, chock the high side, place the BAL, adjust the height, and I'm done! * Security. I was always uncomfortable putting a bunch of boards under my wheel but the BAL removes all of my worry; the camper feels VERY stable * Its serves as its own tire chock....I know that thing isn't going anywhere without my permission * Price. I've seen this product in Camping World and other stores for over $100 Things to consider: * Height needs: most campground sites are going to be pretty level but I bring my Jayco to a lot of music festivals where you're setting up in a field or some other, ungraded piece of land where I've needed to do a lot of leveling work in the past. I'm a bit concerned that this might not raise the tire enough in some of these places and I'm not sure what I'll do if this ends up being the case. I may need to go back to adding some boards under the tire before placing the BAL...which I was hoping to avoid. We shall see. All other places, though, I have no concerns about whatsoever * Its a bit difficult to raise. The one that I have came with a ratchet to adjust the jack height. The wheel blocks it from making full rotations so I have to ratchet it and...well...when I have a lot of height to cover, it was slow going and I needed to take some breaks. That's not a big deal to me though as I might just be weak. I'll get over it but its something to consider if you don't feel like spending 10 minutes jacking this thing up All in all: I love this product and I'll be recommending it to others! The peace of mind that I feel from the provided stability and set up simplicity makes up for any extra time that I may need to put in on VERY unleveled surfaces

This is a game changer no more pushing trailer tent back and forth my trailer has 10 inch wheels and it works great very good product and company

Can’t believe we didn’t get this sooner. Up until our last trip we’ve been using a combination of leveling blocks and chocks, it worked but never exactly level and looked very unstable. This was so easy and quick, leveled the trailer exactly where I needed with just a few cranks, and will definitely help at home as our driveway is a gradual slope. I really recommend to improve the quality of your camping!

Well worth it. So much easier than reversing onto a levelling ramp

This was recommended by many other camper/ caravan owners and I understand why. This makes it very easy to level without using those dreadful blocks! I was worried about damage as it arrived in a very broken box, however, everything was intact. It is easy to use and I will also add my own recommendations.

This is a very simple but effective way to level a trailer. It saved us hours of leveling time when we traveled last year and we did run into some fairly uneven sites. It is very easy to use and within minutes we were level and opening the trailer.
