Which are the best levellers to use on both hard standings and soft grass pitches?

I would like a pair of those but, the tyres on my van are to big for the radius on the Milencos, the tyre only touches the edges of the leveler and digs into the rubber because of this.

Doesn't anybody use just a couple of bits of off cut wood anymore, works fine, doesn't cost a fortune or a planet.

And as an added bonus if you forget and drive off and leave them, you don't shed too many tears.

Hi Kev,

I do ...I have never had any "proper" levelers just some cut off scafolding type planks with 1" stops fitted and a selecton of 3" x 2" x 8" wooden blocks that I arrange to give the right amount of lift.

I am tempted by the Milenco's but where would I store them?, they are so large, my planks and blocks fit around my gas bottles and into the odd spaces in my side lockers...... the only disadvantage is that I need to slam the handbrake on and leave the van in gear to stay at the top of the wooden ramps. ( but we have managed on some really extreme sloping sites Rolling Eyes )

Hi

We use the Quatro levels with our Elegance. Had them for a couple of years now and they are very good on grass and hard standing. They are easy to drive up as you can count each rise. The weight of the van (5 tonne) has bent a couple of the the ridges though.

They come in a bag which is very good as it keeps the mud from spreading to the other contents.

All in there a good buy

Andy

Very true Mike,you do need a decent size locker or garage to put the milenco quatros in,they are also quite heavy Shocked

However they are also the best levellers I have ever used,the 4 stages are shaped so the tyre fits nicely and will not slip or roll off.

Now we don't take the kids any more we have removed the overcab mattress and store them up there.They fit quite neatly in their well made bag.

I always make sure they are secure and stable because if they fall off onto the driver or passenger it would be nasty. Crying or Very sad

I wouldn't use any levellers on soft ground,in fact I wouldn't drive onto soft ground at all if it can be avoided after a couple of previous experiences. Wink

Hi

We have the Uniko 6 n 1 which we bought secondhand from a MHF member. Very easy to use and very stable. However I wouldn't pay the full price of £150 for a pair!!!

We also have a couple of cut offs from a scaffolding board which we use under the rear wheels if it's muddy.

Thule levellers for us, work well on grass and concrete and much more discrete than those bright yellow ones...
