Title: anyone attach those RV bubble levels to their QS?
Post by: catmanriff on June 30, 2016, 03:55:41 PM
I was thinking of putting on some RV bubble levels on the QS. Right now I just use a small construction level and take it around the trailer..

question is: how would you know when you've attached it correctly? I find that different surfaces around the trailer read different level, seemingly due to construction irregularities. I usually take a reading on the frame yolk up on the tongue, on the steps frame, on the back bumper, on the side walls, etc..

I just use my phone on the tongue. Bubble level give you x-y in degrees. I believe  our bed is about 1.5 deg out of level so I aim to have the trailer 2 deg or so high on the port side so blood isnt pooling in my head during sleep. I also like about 1.5 deg nose up so i am not rolling into the wall.

Those stick on levels are cheap, so I bought 4 and stuck them all over. That way I have multiple checks on level and can see one from anywhere. I did make sure the places I put them were actually level using a carpenter level.

Level the trailer with the level you are currently using and then apply them in the level position regardless of construction edges etc.

I use the trusty little bullet level. I've used the little stick on bubble levels on other trailers and they have done the job as well.
