Learned something valuable.

Today, I learned something valuable. The levelUp System can easily pick up one side of the rig. I was just about to jack up the side on the frame to add my home made X-factor. And I thought Hmmmmm. LevelUp provides a jack on both sides of the wheels welded to the the frame. So I already have a hydraulic jack. Why add another bottle jack to the mix.

My controls allow for even lifting to tilt the whole rig to one side a few degrees. It works! The frame lifted so that the tires are about one inch off the ground. That relieved stress on the bolts so I could bolt up the flanges to the Mor/ryde RE equalizer. It saved me a heap of time and work.

Probably a lot more stable as well. Good thinking!

When my axles were replaced we used the level up system as well. It was kind of spooky for me but I wasn't under there doing the work. The guys at Tampa Springs were real excited as it saved them dragging out their jack(s). It just keeps paying for itself in convenience everytime we use it.
