RV SnapPads
I installed these SnapPads and really like them. You can find them at Amazon or direct from the factory, which is much less with military discount. Just a suggestion, great addition to leveling.

Post a picture. I'd like to see how they look on a rig.

Or a link. Either would help!

Here's a link to what I believe the OP is posting about : https://www.amazon.com/RV-Permanentl...ap%2Bpads&th=1
I won't say they are a luxury, but for $135 I don't see a practical use. Maybe I'm missing something?

I suppose any additional pad size helps on non hard surfaces but with only 1" additional height seems useless to me for not overextending jacks. I'd like to see some made similar to crane pads that slide onto the existing pad, increasing pad size and adding 2"-4" of height, made of a lightweight material. Then manufacturers stepping up and having storage spots around the RV so as to not having to carry them all around when setting up or packing up. Am I asking too much?? Lol!

Here's a link.

You ask "how would that benefit me". I ask the same question. I gambled and bought them. Used them on 2 different trips and glad I got them. Read the link and see the benefits. Several other RVers I travel with like them. JMO
Thanks

I held off buying them, until last year, and was parked at a location across the freeway from a rail yard, and on blacktop with a bit of slope. Every time a heavy train would pass, the steel pads would slide a tiny bit. I made the purchase, installed them, and no more slippage. I don't see much of any other difference, but they do add a bit more surface area to the jack pads. We also parked at a park in Arizona this year that required pads under jacks or stabilizers, and didn't need to put any extra pads under the jacks.

As soon as I saw these I added a set of 6. They are made from recycled rubber making them a greener choice than other solutions and also protect the metal feet. The huge advantage is that with everything else necessary to set up a camp site, that is up to 6 times I no longer have to bend over and allign/re-align a jack pad saving my back and considerable time treking between the jack leg and the leveling pad. I’d buy them again.
