Most camp sites will only be 2-4 inches off level side to side. Rarely (2-4 times in 15 yrs) have I needed more than that. Most of the time, in a commercial park, the pad was level or only a inch or two off. A little shovel work can help in even a bad site.
Keep it simple. Start with four or five 2x8x12 planks with beveled ends and two or three 1x8x12. They will last longer if you glue and screw a 1/4 inch chip board or similar composite to them to avoid cracking and splitting.
Carry a bottle jack and a shovel to change tires. There will be times when the axle will be to close to the ground, after a flat, and you will need to dig a hole for the jack. The shovel is good for other things around the camp site and can even help getting you level.
Generally the taller the stabilizers are the more wobble you will get. I try to lower them as little as possible and carry spare leveling boards just for the stabilizers to land on.

Ya mean like these hardwood spacers I use to firmly secure pairs of rubber chocks between adjacent dual axle tires? :W
Oh yeah, forgot to mention - works like a charm! ๐

I use a Tire Changing Ramp for changing tires on a horse trailer and it works great, no jacks. My thought was this would work for the TT. Any thoughts on using this?

Beerbrewer, don't go all great gonzos buying every possible widget and accessory for your first trip, unless you reeeealy like to spend money.
IMO, bring a handful of wood blocks. Heck, even a dozen 2x4s cut to 12-18" long will work.
