We love ours. Bought on Amazon, IIRC.

For the 21BHS they will have to be trimmed substantially.

Here's our first attempt with them:

I bought them when we bought the trailer. They are great. Our salesman trimmed BOTH of them that morning. I ,later, had to rework the cuts, THEN I realized you only have to trim ONE of the levelers !!!

That would be the one that goes between the tires.

Very easy to use. GET THEM!!

I trimmed both in my garage with a Sawzall.

Yes, one could get away with only trimming one, but if you think about it the axles would be loaded unevenly - the trimmed one would try to lift that axle more while the untrimmed one was only getting started, so to speak.

Probably makes a trivial difference, but it made sense to me to load both axles equally.

This may have been referenced previously, but if not, this is straight from the manufacturer:

(oops; I had to edit this entry; I gave a link to a pdf download by mistake that did not work.  Above is a link to the page that includes  the link to article regarding  shortening the leveler.)

ok may be a dumb question. Do I need 4 levelers or 2. One for each tire or just 2 for one side?
Thanks

You'll need enough for one side of your trailer (the low side). So if you've got 4 wheels, then just two levelers.
