Recycled rubber jack pads

I don’t know if anyone has posted this yet. Found these-Envirotile
Reversible 16 in. x 16 in. x 0.75 in. Earth Brick Face/Flat Profile Rubber Paver-at homedepot 5 bucks each. They cut easily with a little soapy water and utility knife, just follow the groove, cut in half and you get 2-8x16 cut in half again, and you get 4-8x8 for 5 bucks! I used them last summer, work better than legos and cheaper than name brand rubber pads (60 dollars for 4-8x8 rubber [rv specific] pads really?) If you have a class c dual rear no need to cut for rear.

Thanks for sharing. Nice cost saving DIY levelers.

Those look handy. I wish we had a Home Depot nearby.

Is this for side to side leveling under the trailer wheels? Looks interesting, i assume it doesn't compress down?

Yes, I find them easier and cheaper than the LEGO plastic ones

What is the weight difference, they look much heavier than the plastic leveling blocks?

Thanks for sharing, looked them up online and my nearest home depot has them in stock. Will get some next time I am in town.

Now, that's a good idea! I have some Lynx lego blocks on my Amazon "to buy" list but these could be better -- cheaper and stronger. Thanks for sharing.
