Oliver Jack Pads

[Overland]

I ran across these while picking up our trailer from service the other week. They're a product that Oliver Technologies sells as part of their mobile home foundation kit.  Jason had grabbed some that had been used for structural testing to use around the shop, and had strapped them together.  I instantly thought they'd make for great jack pads.  They're pretty much the size of the Camco levelers but about half the weight.  They should sell these, or supply them with the trailers.

Or, have a few as "door prizes" at the Rally?

Someone should make that happen. Scott said he'd give me some to try, but I was already on the way back home when he texted. But yeah, at least bring it up to them at the Rally.

Maybe they should supply them or make them available. If they are so good to use why limit them to the numerical few that are able to attend the rally?

[Overland]

Well, it's more an idea - they'd have to check first to make sure they're strong enough for the concentrated load of one of the jacks. Jason thought they'd be plenty strong, but you never know until you try one.

How much of a concentrated load could there be, they're only stabilize jacks

[Overland]

lol, true.
